I would prefer to donate the box and give the devs full control. Let me know if you need anything installed.

Build Flex from the command line (this ensures that you have all the environment variables, pre-reqs, etc. in place) 2. Run Mustella from the command line (again, this ensures that the flash player security settings, httpd server, etc. are in place) 3. Install Jenkins 4. Install Apache Httpd server 6. Set up a job on Jenkins to do a daily run of Mustella 7. Set up email alerts for broken builds. If you can do these steps, that would be great. But if you prefer to just donate the dev box, perhaps you could give me access for a remote desktop connection and I can go in and set it up. Thanks, Om P.S.: As a bonus, if would be great if we could create a minimal virtual machine image that anyone could download and expand on their machines to get Mustella running. But this is for later. Lets walk before we run.
