Subject: RE: [Nant-users] nightly builds



Hi All,

So I am not sure this is going to capture everyone's interest but on the
other hand it is a "first attempt" and I don't really expect it to :-).
I have uploaded an example of the changelog here:

http://nant.sourceforge.net/tmp/changelog_2003-12-26_to_2004-9-14.html

It looks good ... if you're color-blind (lol) ... I don't really like the blue bar and grey background, but those are details ...


I'm also not sure if we should put the NAnt logo on the change log as that logo will not be available for users without internet connection.


Instead of using the local property file I went with the last release date of NAnt, in this case 2003/12/26. I would like to hear what everyone else thinks but this seemed to make sense that we would want to capture all changes from the last release date.

I guess it would be nice to have both a change log doc doc with only the changes since the last nightly build (which we would only include with the nightly builds) and one with changes since the last release (which we would include with betas/releases, and perhaps also with nightly builds).



Just a couple of more notes: I have also slightly modified the changelog.xls that comes with ant to make it more NAnt-ish :-), this will have to be checked in but probably not distributed?

yeah, guess so... should we store it in the "doc" directory or should we also have a "etc" directory (like, for example, Ant has) ?


The output is
just going to the ${build.dir}/doc folder, does that seem reasonable or
is there a more appropriate location?

For releases/betas, I think I would prefer storing it in the root directory ...


For nightly builds, I think we could store the change log containing all changes since the last release in the root directory of both the binary and the source distribution. The change log containing the changes since the last nightly build should perhaps only be available in the download directory of that nightly build.

What do you think ?

Gert
