Inspired by Nick’s tei_current_assignments.py, a program that leverages the gitHub API to summarize gitHub issue assignments, I have just spent the entire day trying to write an XSLT program to summarize pull requests. At this point, I have to (at least temporarily) give up. I simply cannot figure out how to get the list of reviewers (those who have been asked to be reviewers, those who have accepted the request to be a reviewer, and those who have submitted reviews) without, at least sometimes, including the OP in that list. (That is, I have yet to figure out an XPath that will select the reviewers without the OP from the JSON-converted-to-XML returned by the “reviews” API call.)

If anybody feels like helping me out, I think we would find this a useful utility. To prove the point, I generated one possible useful output (an HTML table) using my current mildly broken code, and went through and fixed the output by hand. (Sigh.) See https://bauman.zapto.org/~syd/temp/4TEICouncil/GHPRs.html.

Talk to y’all tomorrow.
