Hi ho! About a year ago I proposed to SF.net that they run cpansmoke on their compile farm. I think this is much more practical now with CPAN::Nargile.
Their reply stated that if someone "official" came forward and asked, they will consider it, but that I'm not important enough... Anyway, you are getting a forward of the ticket spam, and are welcome to act as you deem right.

For my machines at home I have the following procmail recipe: :0 * ^Mailing-List: contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]; run by ezmlm { :0h * ^Subject: CPAN Upload: |grep Subject|cut -f4 -d' '|xargs printf 'CMD='echo "nice cpansmoke -t 1200 -aps %s" &>/dev/null'; $CMD| batch &>/dev/null; $CMD| ssh chef batch &>/dev/null'|at now + 2 hours :0 /dev/null } Lowering the load average threshold for batch jobs with atd would make the tests run only at periods of low load. The number of new modules coming each day changes drastically, but never exceeds a few tens. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jacob Moorman (moorman) Date: 2004-11-22 13:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=152443 Greetings, This request has been reviewed by SourceForge.net staff. The SourceForge.net Compile Farm is focussed on providing multi-platform development environments for hosted projects. Though the Compile Farm could be extended to provide a generic build and testing environment for external groups, this is outside our mission goal and outside the scope of our current Compile Farm offering. https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=762&group_id =1#access If an official rep of the CPAN project has interest in pursuing the use of SourceForge.net services in support of CPAN, that rep should contact our Site Director at [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- this is something that would be considered, if requested. Thank you, Jacob Moorman Quality of Service Manager, SourceForge.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350001&aid=847672&group_id=1
