I don't know... this feels like a step back to me. While we've made a ton of progress upstreaming changes, we still have more to upstream before we'll be able to build out of svn.webkit.org, so maybe disabling the bot temporarily is the right answer. On the topic of build systems, I don't think the Chromium changes brewing there should matter much in the short term. I think we should push ahead making the scons build work and be useful.
If we do remove the bots from the front page, I hope everyone understands that we intend to re-enable them ASAP. -Darin On Mon, Jan 26, 2009 at 12:09 AM, Eric Seidel <[email protected]> wrote: > Sigh.
