openright doesn't do anything

[ikirker]

\documentclass[12pt,phd,a4paper,twoside,twopage,openright]{ucl_thesis}

doesn't produce the proper openright effect.

I think I have a simple fix for this. In "ucl_thesis.cls" line 259 needs to be uncommented and line 260 needs to be commented. i.e. the sequence should read:

\usepackage{emptypage}
\renewcommand \chapter{%
   \if@openright%
   \cleardoublepage%
   %\clearpage
   \else%
   \clearpage%
   \fi

N.B. I've also found it desirable to include \usepackage{emptypage} to supress headings between the end of one chapter and the start of another.

I hope this helps, I don't know if it's optimal.

I've merged in Russel's original un-docstripped class file which, as a side-effect, means this issue is no longer present (as far as I can tell). I'll take a look at emptypage.

Added emptypage to MainPackages.tex. The twoside example looks a bit sparse on numbering now, but that's just because it's mostly empty pages and chapter pages.
