We have 40 committers and I'd be surprised if Mustella was run by more than 10. I'd love to make it easier, especially if there is something simple that will have a big payoff. For me, I have a shell script that sets up the required environment variables plus FLEX_HOME. When an RC comes out, I un-tar it and run the shell script, and run ant main checkintests in the rc folder. It should ignore FLEX_HOME and just use everything within itself but use the same player and other externals. Also, I cheat and copy the "in" folder from my git repo to the rc's in folder so downloads go quickly. Once that passes, I change FLEX_HOME to point to the RC, switch back to my git repo and run mustella from there. That's because mustella is not bundled in the RC and it avoids my having to change my httpd.conf to point somewhere else. Seems like there is one more setting I need to change, but I can't recall it at this moment. -Alex > >-Nick > > >On Tue, Sep 10, 2013 at 1:58 AM, Erik de Bruin <e...@ixsoftware.nl> wrote: > >> > may be one of our sticking points.
