Hello all, One of the things that I've been doing on the side is adapting the excellent PostgreSQL Build Farm to use with Exim. There are many different types of build farm out there, but I chose Posgres because it includes both a client side and a server side portion.
The server portion is currently running on my server, and Jeremy and I are the only two clients. Once I iron out all the details both on the server side and the clients, I would propose making this an official Exim project. But I think it's a ways away from that currently. The current incarnation is at: http://eximbuild.mrball.net I would like a couple of volunteers to contribute some spare cpu cycles and a negligible amount of disk space (~ 50 MB). There is an install procedure at https://github.com/mrballcb/exim-build-farm-client/wiki/Installation . Please let me know if there are any unclear items in this step by step, or if there are any embellishments that need to be made. I specifically avoided specifying required package names because I want be Distro agnostic. If you would like to volunteer, submit the application referenced in the installation link above, and then send an email to me with the desired machine name alias you want for your BuildFarm host. I'll send you back an approval email with the info needed to make your BuildFarm host submissions be accepted. Caution: This is still experimental and subject to change. If you run the client with the provided shell script, the client will auto-update itself, so that part is easy. The backend is pretty much done, but it is still being refined and may have periodic issues. ...Todd -- The total budget at all receivers for solving senders' problems is $0. If you want them to accept your mail and manage it the way you want, send it the way the spec says to. --John Levine -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
