The same statement that a tag like 'joyride-2153:+' means: someone specifically retested an issue on a build known to contain the package(s) you want to ship and could not reproduce the issue according to the testcase(s) discussed in the ticket. > Do we need to notify Dennis as soon as we verified the changes are > working?

Could you post a link to the code which performs this task so that we can see whether it can be extended to other subsystems? (Also, does it publish any web-pages or is it email-only?)
