[gmx-developers] Code validation in limbo. Please HELP!

[Barnett, James W]

Hi all,


Most of the changes occurring are beyond my expertise, but I will say that it is very difficult to know which changes actually need review and which changes have just been sitting there for so long that everyone has moved on.  There are some changes from 2012 that need review. I'm guessing that some of those changes should just be abandoned?


Thanks,

Wes


PS Sorry for the top post. Microsoft Outlook online doesn't like bottom posting, or I'm not smart enough to find the right option.

In fact this one https://gerrit.gromacs.org/#/c/4310/ is even worse. I
fixed the last comment by Teemu about a year ago, and have been rebasing
it since then to keep it current.
