[Xcircuit-dev] CHANGES file?

[R. Timothy Edwards]

Dear Romano,

I got tired of updating everything by hand for every change I made to
the source code, so I wrote a set of scripts that handles everything
automatically on opencircuitdesign.com, and recompiles the source
tarball at night (California time) whenever it finds that I have made
an update to the CVS source.  Then it puts my comments from the CVS
commit into the changes.html file, and also updates the download.html
page.

The script does not attempt to update the CHANGES file in the source,
though maybe sometime I'll sit down and re-write the script.

Of course, anybody who wants to help maintain the distribution can
always get CVS write access from me, and help with some of the
administrative tasks like ensuring that the CHANGES file is kept
up-to-date.

					Regards,
					Tim
