And we should probably truncate news to the last five or so items too. > is project root /, or /trunk? The trunk/ is a project root, as are things under branches/. Most patches are relative to trunk/. > and what is a "patch" The output of 'svn diff'.

She's suggesting updating the page to include more meta-information about the site, in addition to most of the links and news items currently on the page. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
