[Buildbot-devel] github buildbot hooks?

[Axel Hecht]

Seems like github works quite nicely for us on the code side.

I wonder, should we have a buildbot running on top of the github repo (or
repos), to trial on push?

If so, did anybody ponder writing a changesource for github yet?

I glanced over their API a bit, and I'm not so fond of using post-receive
hooks, http://github.com/guides/post-receive-hooks, as that'd be opening up
a port to random data on the master.

The github API on the other hand, http://github.com/guides/the-github-api,
is slightly under-featured. At least when I look at it from the POV of what
we (mozilla) are doing for the hg poller right now.

I'm wondering if someone already has a good idea, or if we should start a
pledge for APIs tuned to feed a buildbot changesource.
