January 2012 - IMP-dev

New 'IMP-build' mailing list

Emails about IMP build failures now go to the IMP-build mailing list, rather than IMP-dev. This makes the IMP-dev mailing list archives a little tidier (no longer cluttered with those emails). If you were subscribed to IMP-dev, you are also subscribed to IMP-build. IMP-build contains topic filters, which you can see if go to the IMP-build info page (https://salilab.org/mailman/listinfo/imp-build) and click on 'Unsubscribe or edit options', then log in and scroll down the page. You can use these to choose to get only a subset of build failure messages. For example, if you only work on SAXS, you can select the saxs and saxs_merge filters and then only get an email if the IMP.saxs module or the saxs_merge application fails. (If you select no filters, you get any email if any part of IMP fails, same as before.) If you want to discuss IMP development but don't actually work on any IMP code, you can unsubscribe from IMP-build if you so choose. The build system results page (http://salilab.org/imp/nightly/tests.html) is still public, of course.

show-changes
by Daniel Russel 25 Jan '12

I added a little script to IMP tools called show-changes that shows changes in IMP (as announced in the history file) that have occurred since you last updated. The idea is to help people get an idea if there are any changes that would require updating their code before doing svn update so you don't have to spend time updating your code when you are in the middle of something else. And I hope to encourage people to read the change log so they have a sense of what is happening in IMP. Do ./tools/show-changes from you svn checkout to see what it says. Let me know if there are any problems.

For emacs users

I added emacs config code to a new emacs page in the wiki that: - turns characters beyond the 80 character limit red - removes blank spaces and the ends of lines when you save.
