The formal review for Andrey Semashev's Finite State Machines (FSM) library is scheduled for August 11th to 20th. ... and again (!) this is not announced on the main web page where it should, so I nearly missed that one again.
Could you please trigger an update of the webpage news section?
I have a proposal: Mails to *.boost.announce should automatically be reflected on the web page news section, so the review manager is released from this burden.
Or better: After login to www.boost.org the review manager fills in a web form for the announcement, which is then sent to the ML _AND_ brought to the frontpage news at the same time.
I would like to understand how the News and Recent Announcements sections of the website's front page are intended to be used. Are they supposed to be updated automatically through some means, or manually?
Technically, the news section reflects a combination of the news feeds <http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/browser/website/public_html/live/feed>. Which are "hand" edited as is deemed appropriate by any Boost developer. But really is only touched by the release team, moderators, and review manager. And the "Recent Announcements" is a direct reflection of the messages posted to the Boost announce list. -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
