I've been working on setting up a new buildbot for NumPy. Unfortunately, I 
don't have much time to work on it, so it's slow going! Right now I am still at 
the stage of getting NumPy to pass all its tests on the machines I'm using as 
test slaves. After that, I plan to transfer existing slaves to the new setup, 
and then maybe ask for new volunteer slave machines (if people think the 
buildbot setup is useful).

One nice feature of the new buildbot setup is that it can build and test a pull 
request, reporting the results back via a comment on the pull request.

As others have said, this is no longer true.

Again, as others have said, I think this has been improved since last time you 
looked. Buildbot can receive github notifications or can poll a repository 
periodically.


On the other hand, I've also been trying ShiningPanda (https://
jenkins.shiningpanda.com/scipy/) because I like the idea of a hosted CI 
solution. Again, though, I haven't yet got all the tests to pass on 
ShiningPanda's default Debian 6 setup (and again, that's because of a lack of 
time).

So, I'm working on Buildbot and ShiningPanda from the community side, but am 
always ready to step aside if someone else has time :)
