It has been simpler than I thought when I have set the functionality up with a little bit of guidance last summer. I think we could probably even make the setup easier with some automated script or so by solving the boilerplate part of the relevant cmake files. As far as I see the admin setting this up needs to know some parameters if I am not too mistaken. I do not have any opinions about the web interface differences because I do not visit that. I have been getting the warnings, errors and unit test failures via email, if any. I will also try out this Jenkins in the future once I find the time for that, but I have been a happy CDash user for about ten months by now. :-) Best Regards, Laszlo Papp
