Thanks. :)

Just wondering whether I am wasting my time because of my “perfectionism" here 
on OSX/CI.
E.g. libkcddb I perhaps shouldn’t have touched at all for now, as it hasn’t 
been committed to
since last autumn… Well, for ark it’s different - of course!

But still, e.g. on my dependencies-RR [1] I have been working for 2 weeks now 
and while doing
so I more and more began to wonder whether it makes sense for all the new 
projects I am trying
to get into CI...

I have the feeling that my work (inspired by Christoph Feck’s post on KDE-DEVEL 
[2] and his
porting status page [3]) runs a little too uncoordinated - which gives me only 
extra head aches,
since I have to iterate through all these projects _manually_ while knowing far 
too little of their
real status and objectives. This lead to the result that I 

        - could effectively only add about _30_ new projects

        - which means that there are now about 200 projects successfully built 
on OSX/CI [4],

        - while having had to go through *170* potential projects from [3] step 
by step.

For all of these I needed to figure out how to build them on OSX/CI and how to 
fix their
dependency metadata. 140 projects are thus disabled on OSX/CI for now. I doubt 
that this can
be considered a very efficient workflow! ;-)

I think we need to have another CI IRC meeting sometime soon, where we could 
discuss -
besides the change to the new KDE/CI system - also which projects are actually 
worth
considering (not only on OSX but) on Linux/CI in general!

What do you think?

Greets,
Marko
