Cool. Biggest problem so far: it's one-dimensional. This is something that Bitten gets right, at least: http://bitten.edgewall.org/build/trunk You can look at platforms across the top horizontally and see the testing history vertically. There's also way too much information in each line. I think the biggest problem with most of these systems is they default to showing you lots instead of showing you what you want to know. In other words, I guess I'm not optimistic we'll get what we want by taking the original "everything" dump and finding various ways to narrow it down. I think we need to find out what questions we need to answer and build /up/ a display that helps us do it. > But there > isn't anything like this: > > http://www.boost.org/development/tests/release/developer/summary.html > > just yet. Good thing, too. That one also displays way too much. :-) -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com _______________________________________________ Boost-cmake mailing list Boost-cmake@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-cmake
