Would it be possible to post a message at least weekly in

I have seen anything about your hardware failure.
Followup-to set to mozilla.support.seamonkey.
Ok, not much status to share but I don't want to keep you guys in the dark.
* I'm still working on this.
* Timing of the machine issue came at one of the worst possible times
overall
** Our helper-release-engineer is in charge of a massive office colo
move for his paid-job and can't really devote any time this/last week week.
** I was traveling for work last week
** I was sick for a few days the week before
** I had a close family member pass away today, and was on her way the
past few days.
* We have to juggle all this fixup time for our *free* time since we all
have day jobs.
It pains us to have this type of delay in getting any new version (beta
or otherwise) out to you, but I will send more information along when we
have things to share about progress.
STATUS UPDATE:
-DONE:
* the buildbot master has been imaged with the base os.
* We have gotten puppet working
-TODO:
* We have to bring up the buildbot master and set it up properly
<-----If we cut a few corners...
<-----at this point we can start spinning beta(s)/Releases
* We have to bring up clobberer (which the machines use to know when a
clobber is needed
* We have to tell our buildapi to report to the clobberer server so that
tbpl can report builds
After the last part is done I can reopen the trees, and I expect to be
building a beta as of tomorrow.
At this point the planned release date is AT RISK. Which means depending
on how smooth this beta goes, and how many users grab it and start
testing, as well as what, if any, reports of problems we get, we may
slip past the release date of the 24'th.
We however can be sure to not entirely skip this release, and will do a
release based on this train even if its late.
Thank You,
Hey, Callek, thanks for this update, and please don't stress yourself,
I'm sure the SeaMonkey supporters will be glad for a new SM whenever
it's hot-to-trot!!
On a related point, for a couple of weeks or so, I've been using my Win7
SM beta, but, over the week-end, I switched back to using my Linux
version, and each night I've been told there is a SM 2.18b4 available
and offering to download the update, and it spins and it spins and it
spins!!
Is there some pref set for when the next Beta should be available?? If
not, any guess why I've been getting these update available screens??
