[Buildbot-devel] Looking for suggestions (TrySchedulers - Buildbot 0.9)

Wed Jan 28 11:37:41 UTC 2015

It works like a charm.

Very last question: suggested ways to get nine up and running? Should I
just get the code and install form there?
I remeber reading a discussion about this, cant seem to find it.
