Hi Stewart, That sounds like a good idea. A lot of FreeBSD port maintainers use a tool named Tinderbox (http://tinderbox.marcuscom.com/) to properly check their ports for build problems, packing list issues, etc. Once a port is committed to the tree, the FreeBSD build cluster attempts to build the official packages. Here are the package status pages for libdrizzle and drizzle: http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=driz zle&wildcard= http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=databases&portname=libd rizzle&wildcard= Pointyhat may take a while to build all of the ports on all of the supported platforms, so if you'd rather have an independent machine hooked into Hudson for your own private build verification, I can help with that. Are there any resources available to install a FreeBSD virtual machine on the Drizzle build cluster? If there is, I can set it up with Tinderbox and configure it to build Drizzle on all supported FreeBSD releases.
