Yes, buildbot is the old-timer and has loads of features. As far as I know, extracting information out of buildbot is more difficult than it is with a tool like Apycot that's built on top of CubicWeb. > Are there things like a API (REST or otherwise) for pulling data out of > apycot? Sure, that's a basic functionnality of CubicWeb. For example, just take any url and append vid=xml http://apycot.hg-scm.org/projectenvironment/hg/full/108464 becomes http://apycot.hg-scm.org/projectenvironment/hg/full/108464?vid=xml If the data that's extracted isn't what you expect, file a ticket at logilab.org/project/apycot and the 'xml' view will be enhanced. As you could read from http://www.cubicweb.org/blogentry/779839 the views you apply to data sets are not restricted to producing html or xml, they can also directly produce json or pdf, graphs, etc. Other examples of the view mechanism would be the ones that use a specific vocabulary as in http://www.logilab.org/project/apycot?vid=doap or http://www.cubicweb.org/blogentry/779839?vid=sioc or http://www.cubicweb.org/cwuser/nchauvat?vid=foaf In short, CubicWeb was *designed* to publish its data under reusable formats, html being just one way to present data. Maybe we can restrict this part of the discussion to the cubicweb mailing list ? > I'm not familiar with __pkginfo__.py, __pkginfo__ is a declarative format used at Logilab. http://hg.logilab.org/logilab/devtools/file/tip/doc/pkginfo_variables.txt > We need a declarative syntax that can be consumed by more tools, > which is why I'm so excited about Tarek's work in distutils-sig.

You will find several people that will be happy to help if you ask your questions on python-projects at lists.logilab.org. > Is that easy work manual or automated?

I'm cc'ing the people that do it often so that they can provide details.
