oh, wow, what a mess. There's a lot to fix still. We'll be looking at each of these in turn, to try to get them to build. The last batch of patches from people left the tree in a very unhealthy state.
We're going to have to watch this a lot more closely. If we can't improve the situation somehow, the only thing I can think of to do is limit people to sending in patches via the issue tracker, and shrinking the set of people who can commit down to a very small circle. Based on what I'm seeing here, the current setup is not working. I have not wanted to do this as we here at LANL don't have tons of free time to monitor patches, but the current situation can not continue.
I think the earlier suggestion, of requiring positive evidence that abuild works after a patch, might be right. only problem -- abulid is making mistakes. The digital logic msm586 bulid fails in abuild, and works fine otherwise. oops.
thanks
