Continuous integration is all the rage these days and tinderboxing is the |
| 20 |
obvious way to go concerning Gentoo. AFAIK, Toralf is the only contributor |
| 21 |
doing tinderboxing out of his own will. In reality, we should have a team of |
| 22 |
devs looking after our own tinderboxes instead of relying on the community. |

I'm wondering if we could start a donation campain for this project and ask |
| 25 |
people if they've got spare machines laying around. I know a lot of folks are |
| 26 |
reading this mailing list so maybe asking on gentoo-dev first for a start would |
| 27 |
be appropriate. |

Otherwise, can the Foundation sponsor the purchase of a couple of servers? |
