[Buildbot-devel] BuildBot & Visual Studios....

I am still working on it; however, I've been traveling for work so haven't had time to do much in a while; unfortunately travel may distract me until December. I'll try to keep people posted as I get a chance to make progress.


I am taking a 2 stage approach: (i) add the registry access support, and then (ii) update the VS support to use it. I've got a linux buildbot master setup for testing so that should make sure I don't do anything stupid that would result in platform dependency for the master.

I also have some SVN additions to finish up (namely the unit testing) which I want to get done first since it is nearly done.

Thanks for checking up! :D

Ben
