Nah, just to have one build-bot per platform which definitely produces install sets that are the same as come out of the Hamburg build-system. For example the comments in the hunspell4thesaurus eis entries. Poor nemeth seems to have spent about 50% of his time trying to get a good installset for Linux and Windows. He should ideally be able to just whack the cws to the makevanilla buildbots and focus on his real task.
