Thanks Gavin. As I mentioned we have had a buildbot job that has been failing for months. We ended up doing our CI builds on Jenkins and just ignore the failure messages since we can’t seem to get them fixed.
I also don’t see how buildbot can do what we want to do. Our current process is to build the site from the release tag, zip it up and scp it to the release managers account on people.apache.org <http://people.apache.org/> where it is unzipped into their web space. The site is then reviewed along with the source and binaries as part of the release process. I’d prefer it if a process could be put in place to allow us to do this on home.apache.org <http://home.apache.org/>, but should that not be possible we will make due with the project VM we have requested.
