Can we all agree on the following:
1. No commits to libraries code on RC branch whatsoever.
2. All patches to regression testing tools and Boost.Build code on RC should be posted to main boost mailing list, so that everybody knows what's being changed.
Please add a cc to the testing list.
But also please post to main boost list, so that there's one list where all changes go.
3. No changes in tester's configurations whatsoever, unless explicitly asked for.
Vladimir are you going to be the person in charge of this? I.e. *no* changes unless you ask for them? I think it's important that there is one person.
Yes, I think I can do it.
4. No new testers whatsoever.
I think that with those agreements, it would take me less than a week to stabilize regression results from Martin Wille (who is historically known to have no local misconfigurations), and knowing that regression system itself works, we can effectively decide what to do with other issues -- including those showing up in configurations that were not previously tested.
If it's not clear by now I completely agree with this strategy.
Great. As outlined above, I'll try to sort Martin's results first. - Volodya
