It would be *very* useful to have a VMS smoker automatically processing smoke-me branches. I've not looked at the smoke testing code, but the biggest concerns I'd have are 0: Can the machine cope with it? I suspect that smoke-testing is a full time job. 1: Are HP happy with it? :-) 2: Presumably the smoker process fires off with cron, or somesuch. I don't know any VMS sysadmin type stuff to translate how things are done from Unix. Nicholas Clark
