I was thinking about backups for the felix repository. How much space does SourceForge give you? Maybe you could start nightly build runs (with buildbot, for example) and when a number of machines pass the regression tests, use a script-hook to create a compressed tar file of the repository on the SF server. Would that do?

I believe it's only 50M-100M. I've got more on the felix-lang.org site. Generally speaking though while that'd be useful, it'd make things a little bit harder to work with. Now if we could generate binaries like mozilla does, that would be helpful.

I guess I misunderstood the problem: I thought you wanted backup- branches of the repository in case the VCS got corrupted.

If it's completed binary packages you want, I'm sure you (or we) could hook buildbot so it would upload a binary package after a successful build and test. You might not get regular nightly builds out of it since that would require buildslaves to remain connected at least every night--and when is "night" between the U.S. East Coast and Australia?

Cheers,
Pete
