The new URL is :
http://bluebream.buildbot.securactive.org/

Other buildbots :
http://grok.buildbot.securactive.org/
http://bfg.buildbot.securactive.org/
http://misc.buildbot.securactive.org/

Funny, it's the same thing each year (read the Message-ID:
<20090616060020.GC9437 at elzar.ws.whq.gocept.com> for a example),
developers are not affected by the buildbot state and when I (or
other) send a mail about failures, the response is : don't spam the
mailing list.

BTW I'm a volunteer.

I have Linux (32 & 64 bits) Buildbots for all Zope3 projects (grok,
bfg, ztk, bb)

Cool :)


Baiju : Do you want another Buildbots? (za = zopeproject, com =
community, ztk = Zope TollKit, bb = BlueBream).
