[Freeciv-Dev] Re: [PATCH] Corecleanup_06 has been put in incoming

["Ross W. Wetmore" <rwetmore@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'll look at the hackers guide and come up with a suitable addition :-).

I'm not sure what you mean by the "docu to timeout". Note that this is
only available in development mode (NDEBUG undefined) as an aid to testers
and as such should not be anywhere is the release version. I'm not sure
that it needs to be explained much more than in a developer guide.

Cheers,
