Yea, I'm just about ready. I was going to wait until I had the initial buildbot system ready to go, but there's no reason I couldn't but my proposal on wine-devel tonight. Quick summary of my proposal:<br>- Buildbot system to automate testing of compilation and application installation / execution (integrating AppInstall)<br>
- Several levels of testing depending on time constraints<br>- Easily configurable<br>- Trybot scheduler (manual upload initially, perhaps if as Dan said, patchwatcher is in a good state it could be integrated) for patch testing.<br>
<br><br>I'll send an email within the next 12 hours or so with my current plan on accomplishing those tasks.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 9, 2010 at 10:02 AM, Dan Kegel <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dank@kegel.com">dank@kegel.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I think it's enough, especially if you do one or two ahead of time and<br>
demonstrate that the process actually works. �It helps to have a wine<br>
patch under your belt, too.<br>

I think he's starting with just getting a buildbot working, then adding<br>
a trybot with a manual upload. �Patchwatcher integration would be a plus,<br>
but its mailing list watcher is fragile and needs rewriting.<br>
(Maybe you could do that little bit.)<br>
<br>
Arjun, are you ready to post a proposal?<br>
