Both options were batch mode.

One of which is not to run “build -a” on the entire world ;-) In my setup at least I have additional components for other projects I’m working on, so running plain ‘build -a’ rarely makes sense. The story is different when only core Isabelle and AFP are the registered components which would be the case when the main work is on the Isabelle side. For that scenario, I do see your point. “build -a” is convenient for a somewhat faster test before one pushes to the main repository. The relatively rare document build failures will be caught in the regression test which does run with the right document options. I’ll have a look at changing the ROOT file, the development mode for the AODV entry is mostly over anyway, so I might just remove the additional sessions.
