Hi Robert, hi all, Do you think it could be worth trying a kind of "sandbox" server built on SourceForge? This would help us to check what could be the future issues with such a system. I don't have a "true" server (just my main machine with a bandwith that fits for personnal usage, and that is not online all the time), but I can do it... Moreover, we could run a CDash on it, so that we would not be limited to 50 warnings :) Comments?
