I was there in the morning, but seems we did not concide.

I used the CVS version of buildbot and the SVN version of jhbuild. There
is only a very minor cosmetic change to the buildbot code and two
patches for jhbuild (we should try to get these merged upstream). There
some other changes, but they are separate files, isolated from the
sources of both jhbuild and buildbot, so it is not hard work.

I'll talk to our sysadmin about this, I'd also need the same for these
machines.

would it be possible to change the machine names? I think we should use
homogeneous and meaningful names, something like:

buildbot.fc6.gnome.org (fluendo)
buildbot.fcrawhide.gnome.org (fluendo)
buildbot.debiansid.gnome.org (igalia)

Also, we need gnome.org domains for this three machines,... do you know
who we should contact in order to do this?

I'll write an installation guide for this, it'll make your life easier
and it can come in handy in the future too. I'll try to write it during
this week so you can start the setup for those machines the next week.

Thanks for your help,
Iago
