[http://hg.mozilla.org/users/alqahira_ardisson.org/madhatter/summary madhatter] is a fork of the Tinderbox client that supports building from either CVS or Hg. It was hacked up by Smokey Ardisson to support Camino 2.1 development.

== TODO ==
''Usually marked '''XXX''' in the code, although some of them are from old tinderbox hackers; this list is not complete''

== BUGS ==

* When building from a branch, getting the Gecko revision number fails sometimes (Cm2.1b1)
* Need to have self-update and tinder-config update generate a log so someone can at least check locally what's going on when they fail. Ideally, use the next build's log, but that's not set up yet, and return the purple (infra exception) status.
* Clobber of mozilla sometimes fails: [http://hg.mozilla.org/users/alqahira_ardisson.org/madhatter/file/tip/build-seamonkey-util.pl#l1276]
