OK, sounds useful. If I'm offline for a while, do multiple builds get queued, or only the "last" one? If the former, I can imagine coming back to a pretty huge load if the slave breaks while I'm on holiday :-( I should look all of this up somewhere. Is there a reference to buildbot for slave maintainers? Are there any specifics for Python slaves that I should refer to? (From what I've been able to find, it seems to me that setting up a slave first requires getting things sorted with the admins, which sadly precludes experimenting to find things out - I can understand why the python admins don't want people "playing" on the live buildbot infrastructure, though :-)) Paul. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
