In December I asked if anyone wants to host cdash. Nothing came of it so I will be shutting down my regression farm soon. I had not added PostgreSQL 15 to it because regression tests were not being collected. I'm sorry to see it go. Regression testing is the best way to ensure your preferred OS and database works as expected with Bacula. I am disappointed that this is now dead. -- Dan Langille d...@langille.org
