This actually sounds good for us? * Is there any way to do inter-matrix-job dependencies - or possibly a way to trigger another build for some of the matrix points? * Will jobs share the same checkout on disk or will a different checkout be created for each point in the matrix? * Can some points in the matrix be hardwired to certain nodes?
