Re: Simple check if current is broken

What about cases when something is broken, but not for everybody?

If only GENERIC build, how does that differ from existing tinderboxing?

 Hello there!
 I sometimes see in this list such mails:
 I got problem with rXX
 It's known, it's fixed in rYY.

 Sometimes it's my problem, sometimes it's problem of other peoples.

 How about make simple web-service where revision numbers could be marked
 as bwoken, with minimal info - like next working rev?

 Can we make small sub-task while buildworld/buildkernel going, to simply
 fetch info about current rev and if it's broken warn user?

 This probably would improve user experience for those who use current, but
 have no time/proficiency to read commit logs.

Just say so.

 If only GENERIC build, how does that differ from existing
 tinderboxing?

It's all in one place.

The idea sounds good to me.  All we need is somebody to implement it
and somebody to maintain it.
