I have some new committer announcements to post to be complete on recent additions.
I am going to take a few days and see if I can generate a complete update of the committer list on the Podling Status page. This is a bit easier than manually checking for any omissions and manually introducing new ones in the correct place, at least this one time. So it will be out of sync for a time, but it should be fine before the end of the week. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Rob Weir [mailto:rabas...@gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, September 23, 2012 19:51 To: ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: Updating Committers on Project Status Page (was RE: New committer: Chen ZuoJun) On Sep 23, 2012, at 10:15 PM, "Dennis E.

It used to require that I check out the whole directory, update the XML, run an ant script to generate the HTML and then check in both the XML and HTML.

I think it is more of a podling tracking thing. So it might be simplest if we just manually update it for now. But longer term it would be good to be able to generate a page for the project website from the Roster. The ODF Toolkit has an XSLTRunner component that could be used for this. -Rob [ ... ]
