Surely someone could volunteer an old Intel Mac to run some tests? (Actually, two someones -- we'd need separate machines for Leopard and Snow Leopard.) I'd be happy to stick it in a server room at PARC and keep an eye on it. (Right now I've got a rack full of old eMacs and a G5 running PPC buildbots.) Perhaps we could get Apple to contribute some "seconds"? I believe donations to the PSF are deductible.
The issue isn't really to get the hardware. The issue is to find somebody to volunteer running a build slave.
I'm already running a Jython buildslave on an Intel Mac Pro which is pretty underused - I'd be happy to run a CPython one there too, if it'd be worthwhile. -- Nicholas Riley <njriley@illinois.edu>
