Become a GHC build slave!

Thanks largely to Ian Lynagh, GHC now has a BuildBot infrastructure to automate nightly builds on multiple platforms. This replaces the old set of shell scripts that we used to run nightly builds; now adding new clients to the setup is relatively easy, instructions are here: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/BuildBot So far we have various Windows builds running, and I'll be moving over the existing Linux nightly builds in due course. If you have a spare machine or a machine that is idle overnight, and you'd like to use it to run automated GHC builds, then please take a look at the above page for how to get started. We especially need platforms that we don't use regularly (i.e. not Windows or Linux/x86/x86_64). Cheers, Simon

Here at ACM@UIUC we have the following that we could use: AIX on PPC Linux on PPC Mac OSX on PPC Mac OSX on x86 OpenVMS on Alpha Solaris on Sparc If needed we could also set up the following: Solaris on x86 BeOS on BeBox IRIX on MIPS Linux on Sparc something on Itanium (Preproduciton-caliber Float support) Also if you would like different version of windows we have: 2003 sever Vista -- Dennis Griffith, ACM@UIUC Treasurer
