Yes. Basically, if you're going to run from git, you need to follow this list. Also note if you have an NNTP client, you can even follow it without subscribing. Just point at news.gmane.org and read the gmane.comp.web.edbrowse.devel newsgroup. I should probably add a note about that to the website and README. There are lots of people out there who prefer to remain anonymous, and they'd benefit from that interface. > but I'd personally change the github page to point to this list rather than the > commandline list since git is our development environment. Yes, but the folks Karl is discussing are contacting him directly. I follow both lists, and the other has been silent for a while. > That being said, I accept that the build process is rather involved at the > minute, so we may need to work to automate some of that. The only thing that is fiddly is the binary build process. Releasing the code is easy. Your message has reminded me of another problem, though. Right now, the edbrowse web site is hosted on my server. If it needs to change, for whatever reason, I'm the only one who can change it. Currently, I haven't come up with a fix that makes me completely happy, but I'll keep thinking on it. You guys may end up with some kind of (restricted) ssh access to the machine hosting the site. I could also set up a page on github, say edbrowse.github.com, and we could all push to that. But github doesn't make it easy to host binary content like tarballs and executables, I think. -- Chris
