Mission statement: Create a new continuous integration infrastructure for

+For the background and goals, see
-This is the repository for the automated creation of the CouchDB CI
infrastructure. Well, at least it will be when it has grown up. This might take
a while, though. Right now, it's just a bunch of Ansible scripts, a Vagrantfile
and a Veewee definition.

[thread](https://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40couchdb.apache.org/msg43591.html)
on the couchdb-dev mailing list and
+* this [ASF Infra
ticket](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-10126).
-See the readme files in folder `baseboxes` (for docs on building the base
boxes) and the section about Vagrant below (for docs on how to spin up the
setup locally).
+*Remark: Throughout this repository we use the terms "master"/"worker" for
the Jenkins build machines, whereas the Jenkins documentation uses the terms
"master"/"slave".*
-Fair warning: This is very much work in progress.
+The main purpose of this repository is to provide a number of Docker
containers that the ASF infrastructure team can use in their Jenkins setups and
which are capable of building CouchDB. The idea is to provide containers for a
number of different operating systems and Erlang versions to make sure CouchDB
builds and runs on all supported setups.
-Current state:
+The current (rough) plan for the build matrix is this:
-- [x] install bare Jenkins master with Ansible
-- [x] install and configure nginx
-- [x] create CouchDB build job in Jenkins via Ansible
-- [x] switch to master-worker Jenkins setup
-- [x] use ntp server for master and workers
-- [ ] Use SCM sync plug-in to manage job configs

-- [ ] enable auth for Jenkins
-- [ ] actually fetch CouchDB from VCS
-- [ ] all apt-get commands should pin a specific version, in the base box
definition as well as in Ansible. How?
-- [ ] create an additional Ubuntu worker with an older Erlang version
-- [ ] create another base box (different linux distro) for a third worker
-- [ ] talk to Infra people

+### Open questions
+
+* AFAIK Erlang 14 support will be dropped soon-ish, so I'm not sure if it
is worth the effort to do anything for that.
--- End diff --
Erlang R14 support is already dropped with no return. So R16B03-1+.
