Hey Adam,

well, of course! Its not like your boss hangs around here, is it? ;)


I have a script gumpy.sh that (1) updates gump from CVS [getting
latest Python code] (2) runs integrate (which checks environment/loads
workspace/updates/builds/update statistics/documents/and generates RSS). It
is easier for me to test on a number of workspaces at once if I can cron
that script rather than copying files, running, fixing, etc.

As soon as I have the id I will complete this (building site.xml and
book.xml per directory). I'd still appreciate input/help on the skin from
some Forrest experts. The Red/Yellow/White is out of my league, and may be
just plain anti-forrest, but I do miss it...

I took a look at how that could be done. I can't really figure it out in under 20 minutes. Given all the power inside forrest, I really doubt it can't be done. But also given that power, I have no idea where to start. This may require a modified document-gump-v12 DTD and an associated XSL styleseheet or two. Lets all agree to bug Nicola until he volunteers :D


Also, what ought be done about proposals/aj_python? Ought I keep working in
there until I've proven that this works (builds all succeed) and it builds
nice xdocs/RSS? What is your pleasure?

in general: at the moment, you're the guy doing the work, who knows the code the best; you're probably also the best guy to evaluate all the different code organisation options.


Generic advice: we can always change it later. We use cvs precisely because it provides us with functionality like "undo". Given python gump is still in 'alpha' stage, you should not be *too* worried with breaking some things.

More generic advice: do the simplest thing that would possibly work. If that means a seperate tree called "aj_python", that is a good option. When you find the "aj_" prefix becomes annoying or people get confused or there is any other reason why that no longer works, it is time to move.

My personal preference? Merge the trees ASAP :D

cheers!
