| To get hold of the latest build you need gitlab access.
I suspect Roland was asking for something a bit less than that (though
he might accept that as an access method - I wouldn't).
Better would be much more restricted than the current drafts are,
generated PDF files - not the sources that make it (nor info on the
number of intermediate updates that are actually made to achieve
the desired changes). Not necessarily daily, just whenever a batch
of changes have been applied, and are considered complete.
Getting a whole new draft, with hundreds, or even thousands, of changes
dumped upon us makes reviewing difficult - there's just too much to
attempt (I haven't found time to even really start on draft 3 yet).
But having a draft having just the past couple of days worth of changes,
along with the messages on the list which indicate which changes have
been applied, would make that far easier - there would be a much more
limited set of pages that actually need reading, the whole thing would
be nicely spread over a much longer period (further utilities to diff
PDF files exist, and are usable, as long as the set of changes is not
too large - once there start to be getting to be a lot, almost every
page can have "changes" (perhaps just page numbers) and that method of
seeing exactly what altered, quickly, is lost).
