    Heh.  But it sure does sound like it could be automated!  Automation
    is the key to longevity.  

    In any case, it's a good experiment and it does show the potential
    for integrating some sort of commit log automation filter to pull
    out commits to branches and throw them onto a web page automatically.

	It can definitely be done with an awk and a minimal shell script.
	
	Similar to the way I used to generate FreeBSD-4 MFC lists, which
	I did my regex'ing the commit mail archive.  I will see if I can
	do something for branch commits and put it up on leaf.
	Kind regards,
