Hosting the qt-ews on Ubuntu Karmic is now super easy. I can give you a script that takes a fresh Karmic install and boots it into running the bot. Depending on how much you're paying for hardware, EC2 might be more or less cost effective than owning the machines outright. At the moment, I'm running the style bot, the Chromium EWS, and the Qt EWS on the same EC2 instance. There aren't that many patches being put up for review now, so we probably won't find out if it can handle the load until January. I'd really like to get a Gtk EWS up and running too, but the Gtk build system isn't very efficient. The build-webkit --gtk script calls configure, which can end up triggering a full rebuild. At some point I'll try to catch a Gtk hacker online and get some advice. After Gtk, I might try to tackle Windows (although I've never actually gotten WebKit to build on Windows). > It would be great to host the Qt EWS, and in the near future also have a > trybot which runs the Qt layout tests. The main challenge with the LayoutTests is dealing with the case of some tests being red all the time. At the moment, the bigger bang for the buck seems to be getting build coverage on more platforms, so we haven't tried to solve that problem yet.
