Project Description

Discuss maintenance issues and priorities for Slicer and Extension nightly builds as NA-MIC itself winds down.

Objective

• Determine how maintenance of the factory machines will be handled
  • Do we have enough machines?
  • How can the community help? (setting up and maintaing dashboard machines)
• Are there other technologies or systems we should leverage, e.g. travis-ci
  • I've had good luck setting up a dashboard machine with for CTK
    • this travis config script
    • triggers a build like this
    • that submits to the dashboard on every commit.
  • Travis is free for open projects
    • Builds are triggered by git pushes to github (to any branch or pull request)
    • Build machine is ubuntu 12.04, X server with GLX can be supported
    • Mac and Windows build machines are in beta
  • There is a commercial version of travis for priority access and private repositories
• Address questions discussed in this slicer-devel email thread
  • Gerrit vs github
  • Review Board
• Other ideas we should consider?

Approach, Plan

• Have a breakout discussion and document results here
