I did a new task for Cocoon2 that gets current pending patches from Bugzilla
and sends a nag to the cocoon-dev list with the current live patchqueue. It
also updates the Cocoon documentation, and can be made to update the site
automatically. You can find it in current xml-cocoon2 and can call it with
build -try -Dtry.target=patchqueue-notify. It's defined in
tools/build-t.xml.
I think it would be cool to incorporate it in daily builds.
I'm willing to help on the "massaging" of the log files.

Here is where I could come in. Could you please put somewhere an example of
the output of these builds. You see, I'm not so keen on running the whole
thing from a 56k (40k real) modem ;-)
> then the fun stuff. Do stuff like JXR using JavaML to create browsable
hyper-linked source code, JavaDoc that lists what projects use what class,
pretty graphical dependency graphs using something like Graphotron (sp?),
and code audits and metrics from the output of the JavaML xml files. Maybe
even source code beautification according to the Elements of Style.
BlameLogs to help Gump pick who is responsible.
I have a charting component in java I could donate.

work, so I need a *lot* of help, that is why I am querying the list for
help. Vindico runs right now, but only does the basic cvs get and build
scenario. I am going to keep building, and then we can see where we might
end up doewn the road...
I'm here ;-)
