That seems like a good solution, now that we have the podlings.xml file. > Maybe at some point clutch itself could be run automatically whenever > podlings.xml is updated. Perhaps just run it twice per day regardless. There are other things that it assesses too. Yesterday the podlings.xml was updated a number of times in quick succession to catch up with laggard graduates. So would not want to run cumbersome Clutch on each update. Or perhaps it could be triggered by Ant, say 30 minutes after the update, otherwise once per day. Clutch seems reasonably robust now. The main thing that used to trip it up was project names with inconsistent spellings for different resources. The recent addition of the "resourceAliases" attribute in podlings.xml does assist. -David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
