Hey guys,

Past week I was reading through the buildbot manual, but I decided not to use it. IMO it is far too complex, fat and not something which has the needed functionality easily available (you can extend it with python scripting, but what's the fun of that huh?)

So yesterday I decided I will write my own. I'll give it some more though what functionality we need most (ability to prioritize tasks, manually adding tasks, getting changes from svn  to name a few).

So what do I need from you? - name (what's a tool without a name huh?)

How about ogee? From wikipedia, Ogee is a type of arch which looks very similar to the Arch Linux logo.

- git-repo (not direct, but sometime in the next two weeks or so. Maybe we need to first pick a name too) - ideas. What do you guys want to see first? How do we want to get notified (daily mail, using a webpage which lists success of all completed/pending tasks, something else)? You get the idea, now is the time to speak up.

I think a website would be really cool. Something like Ubuntu's PPA -- that system is really nice. Abhishek
