Hello,
After the 1.5.0 I tried again to setup a buildbot (and on top of that on *windows*) for buildout. Good news is that the tests now work. Bad news is that there are a hell lot of failures. More bad news is that there are some failures even on linux (a local ubuntu).
Does anyone care about having a buildbot for buildout and fixing those failures?

I think it would help a lot having the exact requirements for tests written down. Or even maybe checking those in the tests's setUp? There are some presumptions how it would work, but it's rather hard to guess. -- Best regards, Adam GROSZER mailto:agroszer@gmail.com -- Quote of the day: What happens when you cut back the jungle?
