Hi Porters! I am happy to announce that redports.org has finally reached the point where I think It's safe to be used by everybody! In case you never heard of it before redports is the result of an idea born at EuroBSDCon 2011 in Karlsruhe to give Port Maintainers and Port Committers a public service to test their new ports or ports patches during development or before submitting a ports PR. Many people test ports only on their own machine because of lack of hardware. Redports gives you instant access to build environments for FreeBSD 7.4, 8.2, 9-CURRENT, 10-CURRENT on i386 and amd64 and even special ones that use CLANG/LLVM or GCC 4.5 as ports compiler. For everyone familiar with FreeBSD Ports Tinderbox [1] it's pretty obvious how it works. In fact redports is build on top of multiple Tinderboxes so it is scalable, fast and reliable. With your account you get your own Subversion Repository to maintain your ports and with every commit to the repository all affected ports are automatically built. When registering an account please read the UserGuide [2] first to get an idea of how to work with it. Feedback and new Ideas are welcome! Best regards, Bernhard Fröhlich (decke@) [1] http://tinderbox.marcuscom.com/ [2] http://redports.org/wiki/UserGuide -- Bernhard Froehlich http://www.bluelife.at/
