Some problems with the GCC web machinery

Some problems with the GCC web machinery

[Gerald Pfeifer]

Based on a report by Uros I investigated and found that 
/www/gcc/htdocs-preformatted had not been automatically updated for
the latest sets of changes:

I know did this manually...

  [gerald@sourceware htdocs-preformatted]$ cvs -q up -PAd
  U gcc-4.3/changes.html
  U gcc-4.3/cxx0x_status.html

...and also invoked /www/gcc/bin/preprocess to push the changes from
there to /www/gcc/htdocs and thus the web server but wonder whether any
of you may have an idea on might have gone wrong?  This system has not
seen any changes (that I would know of) for a while, so I cannot explain
what may have caused this.


On a (possibly, but probably not) related note, I found the following
permissions under /www/gcc which break a `cvs up` at that level of the
tree:

  drwxr-sr-x  13 dberlin   gcc    4096 Mar 13 15:00 bugzilla
  drwxr-sr-x   2 dberlin   gcc    4096 Nov  8  2003 bzCVS
  drwxr-sr-x   2 dberlin   gcc    4096 Aug 31  2005 wikiconfig
  drwxrwxr-x  13 dberlin   apache 4096 Jul 25  2005 wikidata

Daniel, did you look these down intentionally, are could you make these
tree group writable?

I certainly don't remember doing this, feel free to chmod g+w them

Done.  

On a related note, I saw that Mark's wwwdocs change today went through 
without a problem, so I'm inclined to say we had a temporary glitch 
somewhere (as much as I dislike Heisenbugs).

Note that the C++0x docs are out of sync.

ie:
http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/c++0x.html

and:

http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/cxx0x_status.html

differ. I guess this is by intention. What's the plan here? Should I 
move the extern template and type_traits bits to cxx0x_status.html?

I am not aware of this being intentional, and from my perspective making
such a sync would be very desirable.  It would be great could you have a
look, Benjamin!

Thanks,
