Hello, I'm Enlightenment user on FreeBSD since E16.999. I really want to see E19 working on my favourite platform, but I am not programmer (just a little). I am ready to provide one or two VMs on FreeBSD or PCBSD (desktop version of FreeBSD) for your build bot if it helps. Probably, it would be a good idea to have the two supported versions - FreeBSD 9.3 and FreeBSD 10. So please, give me the instructions about the servers preparing and providing you the necessary external access. Just for information - E17.5 (the last version from FreeBSD ports) is rather stable on PCBSD 10 after disabling of all filemanager stuff, it is my everyday WM now.
