[Biojava-l] Nightly checkin reports

[Francois Pepin]

I'd be partial on sending it to the -dev list. I'd like to receive that
information and the traffic is high enough that once per day shouldn't
to get anyone screaming.

Of course, if there are people who are screaming about it, it's not a
big deal to go and ask people to subscribe to yet another mailing list.

Thanks Thomas, you're a star.

I tend to feel that the biojava-dev list should be
serving those of us who are actively interested in the development and
implementation details of BioJava. The biojava-l list is for questions,
anouncements and user support. From this point of view I don't see why
the daily cvs summary shouldn't go to -dev.

On the other hand, I guess we could set up yet another
mailing list specifically for these cvs messages. Not
my preferred option though. As you say, let's hear
what people think.

Oh - is it possible to avoid sending "nothing changed
today" notifications on booring days?

Rock & Role! This will almost make us look
professional! If we do nightly builds, it would be
neat to put an entry in the biojava.jar manifest with
a time-stamp we can use to build exactly the same jar
in the future. That way we can throw away builds each
week but still debug user problems if they download a
nightly build.
