I hope we can all meet at Gran Canaria next year, but if that's not
possible, we can try to arrange a hackfest in La Coruña, sure :)

It would be cool not to have to wait a year to get the build.gnome.org stuff up and running at full strength, though =)

I have pushed what I have so far to bzr-playground.gnome.org:

bzr branch http://bzr-playground.gnome.org/~johncarr/jhbuildbot/trunk

You should be able to browse the history there too. Some of this is more hardcoded that it should be, but you should be able to get a feel for the new approach that the buildbot people suggested. This branch is very close to solving the following two goals:

 * Upgrade to 0.7.7
 * Only use 2 ports (right now: 9070 for build slaves, 8080 for http)

When its a bit more mature it should also:

 * Make deploying slaves easy (via jhbuild)

Before that though I need to:

 * Make sure builds run in the right order (migrate Serial scheduler to the new system)
 * Make sure that build-on-commit works
 * Port over the skinning stuff
 * Port over the home page (where we had a summary)
 * Port over feeds

(As it happens, it looks like 0.7.8 is due out in a few days....)
