 I have a fairly recent MacPro on Snow Leopard, which I keep consistently up
 to date and its connected all the time. It has more capacity then I can
 really find use for.

Now that the buildbot is up, it is recommended that you try to
investigate the failures (and the test_ttk_guionly crash), and that you
create bugs reports on http://bugs.python.org for them.

Thank you!

Antoine.

[Pythonmac-SIG] sad state of OS X Python testing...

2010-10-03 Thread Bill Janssen
Folks, I was looking at the buildbots again.  Do you realize that we
have no OS X Snow Leopard buildbot?  No Intel Leopard buildbot?  Well
over half of Mac users are using Snow Leopard, and we're not testing on
that platform.  In fact, the only Intel OS X machine we're testing on
is a Core Duo, not a Core 2 Duo, and that's running Tiger.

Surely someone could volunteer an old Intel Mac to run some tests?
(Actually, two someones -- we'd need separate machines for Leopard and
Snow Leopard.)  I'd be happy to stick it in a server room at PARC and
keep an eye on it.  (Right now I've got a rack full of old eMacs and a
G5 running PPC buildbots.)  Perhaps we could get Apple to contribute
some seconds?  I believe donations to the PSF are deductible.

Bill
