Or maybe to set up a publicly available CI system running contribs and qooxdoo tests alike, should there be a sponsor available for hardware and network resources? (Sorry for answering so late and reopening an ancient discussion, I simply didn't have time to read this earlier, but I think it's an area of potentially important improvement, not by necessarily adding much more value, but adding significant value to qooxdoo's ecosystem - which is IMO a critical aspect of long term viability of qooxdoo.)

The issue is that the timescale for main Qx releases does not necessarily align with the workload of the contributors, so there's an element of YMMV if you upgrade a contrib. OTOH, it's a contrib not a proprietary patch and many contrib'ers are happy to accept patches. Perhaps the best solution to this would be to encourage contribs to switch to github so that there is an easy and transparent way to submit patches to someone else's work John
