RSS feeds for pull requests

Hi, It seems that a part of the nitty-gritty development discussions has moved to the Github pull requests. Keeping tabs on these is not completely easy, since (i) AFAIK only the people listed as "repository owners" get email notifications of new PRs, and (ii) also they do not get notifications of changes unless they say something in the discussion. Here's one work-around to the situation: RSS feeds for everything that's going on in the pull requests. Github doesn't itself seem to offer this -- at least I didn't manage to find it -- but at least it was fairly simple [1] to patch it together. All chatter: http://new.scipy.org/numpy-chatter.xml http://new.scipy.org/scipy-chatter.xml Only new pull requests: http://new.scipy.org/numpy-pull.xml http://new.scipy.org/scipy-pull.xml They don't update in real time, and I'm not sure how useful these turn out to be in reality, but there it goes.

That sounds relevant -- I guess it makes Github send you mail for each new comment. At least it seems to be turned on for the PRs for which I get mail. But this requires you to go and click through every new PR... In principle I can also 'watch' the projects I want to follow, and then grab the RSS feed of my Dashboard. However, since everything is pretty much jumbled together there, it's not so easy to follow. *** Another thing that was on the table at some point were automatic mails to the ML for new pull requests. I think GH doesn't offer support for this, but it could still be doable thanks to their API. -- Pauli Virtanen
