As one of the people that it is assigned to. All communication has taken place in public. it has all taken place on irc in #fedora-admin and #fedora-extras Perhaps thats a communications method that does not work for you. but that has been where it has been happening. Currently the goal is to add to the push scripts so that the first step is to checkout the cvs tree check if comps.xml.in is updated. if so run make comps check the return status if make was ok put new comps in place and do rest of the push. if make comps fail a flag will be set and the push will proceed with the old comps.xml file. -- Dennis Gilmore, RHCE Proud Australian _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board-readonly mailing list fedora-advisory-board-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board-readonly
