Ted (et al)

I just added this entry for the output of Python Gump:

[http://lsd.student.utwente.nl/gump/index.rss]
name = Jakarta Gump
face = http://gui.apache.org/images/apache_feather_bullet.gif

I chose the least verbose RSS feed (not the Atom one) and I hope the traffic
from Gump is deemed appropriate, and not overwhelming. I'm game to pull this
if things turn ugly. [Gump needs to send nags (e-mails or otherwise) to keep
the community's minds on integration & interface changes, and it hasn't been
able to since September last year. This might be a a powerful alternative.]

The logic behind a post on this channel from Gump is that when a project
changes state (a first time integration, a change from failed to success, or
pre-requisite failed to failed) a simple posting is made once only. Only
first time changes in state are recorded, so hopefully we ought only get a
very few postings per day. [That said, Ant could (in theory) break and cause
a whole flurry of posts.]

Leo, I hope this will reduce bandwidth utilization on your machine ('cos
folks won't poll your feed directly), but it might lead to more (as folks
follow through stories to get details.) I'll move this to gump.apache.com
(or whatever it is called) as soon as it available. Please let me know if
this is a problem.

regards,

Adam

bandwidth problem? Nah....

Apparently, the machine has so far handled about a gig of http traffic 
in january (all of december was 600mb). I think the campus usage policy 
allows 10GB per week of outside-of-campus traffic. If it becomes an 
issue, I'm sure that the network admins will cut me some slack. Given 
the half a dozen tomcat instances and several dozen httpd instances that 
run here at the university, I'll just go and thumb on some heads with a 
big club if they don't :D

That should've been "aren't", hopefully that was abvious from the context.

Ok, I've found the <table> I left open, and have done some other HTML
cleanup/prettiness. I'll test it today.

Still, I've pulled 'Jakarta Gump' from Planet Apache until I've resolved
this & the escaped HTML inside Gump's RSS is clean.

FeedValidator said it was ok, and it looked ok inside my feed reader(s)
[which are HTML pages themselves, so probably not as susceptible], so I
never looked inside the content tag by tag (sorry):

http://www.feedvalidator.org/check?url=http://lsd.student.utwente.nl/gump/index.rss

I guess validation can only go so deep. :(

Ought we make this another example of why we ought chase the holy grail? ;-)

I've no problem with this, but it looks like some of you tags are 
hosing the rest of the blog.
