[Buildbot-devel] Following of startup log in 0.8.10

[Ladyofthe Maple]

Hello,
I just went though a bit of trouble to make sure there is always something being printed while my master starts up.  Even when a task is running that takes a while with no output.I added a thread and a queue to allow me to print output from a spawned process or print a '.' if there isn't any output for a moment.ALL of this in order to make the log follower happy and not stop following after 10 seconds.... Why did the log follower STILL stop ?Here is the end of my startup output.

The buildmaster took more than 10 seconds to start, so we were unable toconfirm that it started correctly. Please 'tail twistd.log' and look for aline that says 'BuildMaster is Running' to verify correct startup.
If I look in the twistd.log file I see that the dots never stopped being printed.So, what's going on here ?I use "print" to generate the output and it shows up in the log just fine.
