- At the AGM we formed an ad-hoc documentation working group. - One of our ideas was that we should have a last reviewed date for documentation, so that we can periodically implement a review mechanism (GitHub Actions posts to Slack for a regular documentation outdatedness check?) to track how old docs are and ensure they're still relevant. - This is a first step towards that goal, by adding a `last_review_date` to the metadata of all docs with a date of earlier than Homebrew's inception because everything needs reviewing so that we start from a good base!

# BrewTestBot
|
|
|
|
[`brew test-bot`](Manpage.md#test-bot-options-formula) is what runs the automated review and testing system funded by [our Kickstarter in 2013](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/homebrew/brew-test-bot).
|
|
|
|
It comprises three Mac Pros hosting virtual machines, several Intel and M1 Mac minis and some cloud Ubuntu instances that run the [`test-bot.rb`](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-test-bot) external command to perform bottle builds and automated testing of the full lifecycle of any change to Homebrew or its taps.

## Pull Requests

|
The bot automatically builds pull requests and updates their status depending on the result of the job.
|
|
|
|
For example, a job which has been queued but not yet completed will have a section in the pull request that looks like this:
