Hi
I would suggest the following : take one of the latest nightly builds. They contain a new task : ModificationReader http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/Modification+Reader+Task This task reads back in modifications made with the modification writer. It's best placed first inside the prebuild section, so other tasks can also see these read modifications. http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/Modification+Writer+Task Be sure to set the appendTimestamp to true, otherwise you'll overwrite the same file. Now you have all the modifications in the current integration result, and you can use the existing functionality. Also when the task using the modificationreader has run ok, be sure to delete the files oterwise you'ill keep reading them. hope this helps with kind regards Ruben Willems On Fri, Aug 29, 2008 at 11:46 AM, DaveMoor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi > > I am planning to write a plugin (my first) to process the SVN comments > into a formatted change log to include in my emails.
