I don't mean to cast aspersions on the maintenance of the tests (although I do think it would be unusual if a product was released with failures in its own automated test suite). I don't feel entitled to complain too much, but I'd like to understand the situation. I just want to find answers to

It's hard to do such a thing when you factor in that mono supports many dozens of targets and configurations and that sometimes those breaks were caused my maintainers - I have my share of faults. Thing is, right now the team at Xamarin has tons of stuff on its hand so getting the build

Hi Rodrigo, Good news the guys at Xamarin are working hard on getting the build infrastructure back. Would you please give us an estimate about when will it be up and running again? I would like to work on bugs in the Windows version of mono, but I could not even compile it. I hope the automatic

I think you misundestood my email. It's the opposite, right now we, at Xamarin, can't really afford the time to bring the mono CI infrastructure back so someone from the community needs to step up and do it. On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 3:07 PM, Kocsis László kocsis1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi

Ooops. I thought you need community help, but you at Xamarin are also working on it. How do you imagine a build system installed by the community? What does it exactly mean that someone from the community needs to step up and do it? For example, I could hack together an automatic build system on

my own package so I don't have to compile Mono every time I deploy a Mono app. Is there a straightforward way to ignore the tests? Thanks. Harry Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2011 15:12:12 -0300 From: Rodrigo Kumpera kump...@gmail.com Subject: Re: [Mono-dev] Test suite failures (Mono 2.10.2) To: Kocsis L?szl
