Re: nightly builds
I am familiar with hudson so I can figure out how to get hudson carma. I guess I don't need to be a PMC anymore to do that, I will figure out simon On Wed, Aug 11, 2010 at 1:49 PM, karl.wri...@nokia.com wrote: Once again, I am bringing up the subject of nightly builds and javadoc for LCF. Is there anyone on this list who is familiar enough with apache infrastructure to set up a Hudson build, a la solr? (Uwe, are you listening? :-) ) Any assistance, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Karl
