Dave, thanks for forwarding this to me. Hello Nathalia, Thanks for reaching out. I am running an experimental buildbot for GCC (currently possibly down as it's moving servers, but downtime should be short). There are a few issues to fix, which I will be dealing with in the next couple of weeks. A few examples of important issues to fix are: * dealing with regressions on the gcc testsuite; * trimming down the testsuite to have a fast testsuite run which takes not longer than a coffee break; * ensuring that notifications are processes properly. Would you be able to share your configuration or solution to these issues? Kind regards, -- Paulo Matos
