autobuild people are interested.
For questions, I'll reuse the one from the first hotspot, include yours and
mine, I'll send it to you. If it's fine for you, we'll send it to them, the two
admins will reply, we'll maybe add other question, depending on their replies.
And finally, we'll post the news item.

"Next time we'll choose a game, ok ? :) "
That's perfectly fine. I'm just unable to choose between slune and wormux. Both
looks interesting but I'm not really able to test them.
Not that I dislike gaming. In my life, I spent hours playing Starcraft/BW on
battle.net in the old day, I was still playing Counter-Strike before the 1.6
upgrade with this crap of steam, and I enjoyed a lot Neverwinter Night.
But, frankly, games just does not work on GNU/Linux for me. I got radeon
graphics card on all my computers (and not really old chips, from 9000 to
9600pro) but all the 3d games are not even playable (and yes, xfree setup is
supposed to be ok, with DRI activate, AGP with the appropriate factor, fast
write, sw cursors etc). Everything is just damn not fluent with graphics are
not exactly comparable to Warcraft III. I do not blame free software game
authors. I think 3d chips manufacturers are responsible of a big part of the
problem.

OK, let's say I like the 'testautobuild' one, looks neat and raise tons of
questions as comparisons against Tinderbox or the Debian build process arise. I
think Brilliant is a bit too academic and most documentation is in french. As
for gswebkit, the only objc webapp I know is OpenGroupWare, but it's still
interesting.
Next time we'll choose a game, ok ? :)
Some questions for testautobuild (need rephrasing):
* Do you propose/maintain a collection of reciepe (in the Gentoo or uOS style)
to 'testautobuild' some popular packages ?
* What is the difference with other popular unattented build packages, like eg.
Tinderbox ?
* Aren't you overlapping some distro packaging tools functionnality ? (Eg.
RedHat and Debian also use procedures to package from 'pristine sources' and
make automation easy; including chroots, installed files discovery, autodeps,
etc)

Hum, I never thought about the procedure to follow in the current case. :|
What do we do now?
-------------------------------------------------------
Date: Mon 10/18/04 at 14:34 By: Vincent Caron <zerodeux>
I'll have:
- slune
- wormux
I tried to find something else than games, but nothing really convinced me :).

My vote goes for:
- brillant
- testautobuild
- gswebkit
And yours, Vincent ?
