Every commit you make to trunk (well, group of commits, within
fifteen seconds of each other) is run through an incremental build,

clobbered, resync'd, and built from scratch, which takes about a
minute.
Reporting is still IRC-only. I want to keep an eye on the bots for bit
before unleashing them upon the mailing list.
Since we're having a parallel discussion about the test suite, it seems
like a good time to update you on this piece as well.
https://ci.apache.org/builders/httpd-trunk
The builder has been happily chugging away for over a month. It caught
two bad trunk commits (both of which, IIRC, were fixed independently
within ten minutes). There's been only one spurious failure, related to
SVN complaining about DNS hostnames in the middle of a sync. (This
happened around the same time that apache.org hosts were undergoing some
sort of certificate strangeness, so I'm not really worried about it yet.)
So I think it's safe to start sending build reports to the mailing list.
We have the following wishlist items left:
- run a nightly test suite
- set up 2.4.x in addition to trunk
- set up Windows in addition to Ubuntu
Getting 2.4.x going will require some backports, so I'm planning to look
into running the test suite against trunk (probably not next week but
the week after). Unless there's anyone who *really* wants 2.4.x
autobuilding ASAP. Thoughts?
