Maybe CI is the wrong thing.  There was a message a few days ago about
Bamboo going down, and I replied offering to try making a new one.  I
unfortunately don't know what Bamboo was (or, apparently, what a build
server is), so making a new one is proving difficult.  I do have a ton
of hardware and an external machine with a public IP though, so if
somebody can put me on the right path I'd love to pitch in.

Ahh, righto, I understand now.

Basically what we'd appreciate is getting more tests running on more different OSes. Currently the only machine doing this is my x86 linux box, but it's working pretty well. I used Hudson to set it up (http://hudson.dev.java.net) and I've got Java 5, Java 6, and "Java 7" (IcedTea) running our tests. Everything's working well, except our RubySpec runs have some failures because Hudson doesn't run them in such a way that they get a tty.

So if you have, say, 64-bit linux, x86 Solaris, Sparc Solaris, Windows, or OS X you can set up something similar on, we're totally ready to help you.

Also, if Hudson isn't your speed, there's Rebuildius, the bot Rubinius uses for builds: http://github.com/djwhitt/rubuildius/tree/master

The build target combinations we're running now are:

normal test run: clean test
"all" test run: clean test-all
dist run for nightlies: clean test dist
spec run: clean spec

Of these, test-all is the most brutal, taking about 30 minutes on my 2.6ghz Opteron.

So what's next? How can we help?
