We talked about the Travis testing on the call today.  Here's the short version 
of what Travis is doing:

- it's a free, cloud-based CI infrastructure
- they provide Ubuntu VMs and containers for testing
- they also provide OS X VMs for testing
- the testing we're doing for OMPI is basically:

  for every OMPI master commit and every OMPI master PR:
    foreach Ubutu and OS X
      foreach both gcc and clang
        ./autogen && make
        if Linux&&gcc
           make distcheck
        else
           make check

Essentially, it's another set of smoke tests for building and "make check" 
(with a single "make distcheck" in there for good measure).

We talked about it a bit on the call today.  In short:

- we'll use it for now
- if we end up not liking Travis, we'll either change what it does or shut it 
off

NOTE: The Travis infrastructure is running a bit behind today to clear a 
backlog: https://www.traviscistatus.com/incidents/0qdqnwr2x464
