I do not know if anyone else is doing this. If they are, I have no real interest in doing this. If I *do* do this, I will certainly use Brian's script, and will push upstream any modifications I need to use to make this automated. I don't want to create more confusion with the builds--just provide a way for folks to get up-to-date dev builds without having to setup the whole toolchain. I find this very useful for verification purposes before making patches to new projects--I setup the toolchain, build a new executable, and make sure the behavior is the same in the nightly provided by the project. We have this for Debian/Ubuntu right now, but if it doesn't exist for the other platforms, I'm willing to put it on my "few hours a week" Kicad list, because Jenkins/automated builds is something I have some experience with.
