Fair enough. I've already added <listApp> (currently incomplete) in
Specs. But I have had quite a struggle to get a local build system
working, so I think it would be a good idea to create a desktop version
of the Jenkins build script to enable contributors to test local builds
when they're going to do something that might take a lot of testing
before it's right, along with some instructions for what targets to make
when you're e.g. building only the web guidelines or testing the
stylesheets.
Cheers,
Martin
