OSDL had a tool called PLM with a primary goal to test patches against the Linux kernel. It applied them and built them on multiple platforms. It's a pretty simple idea and here are some links to what it did; the systems appear to still be up for the moment so here are a couple of links to what it did.
Summary of build results: http://plm.testing.osdl.org/patches/show/linux-2.6.20-rc3-git3 Summary of recent patches submitted into the system: http://plm.testing.osdl.org/patches/search_result It also provides an rss feed: http://plm.testing.osdl.org/rss There a couple of things initial things I wanted to change, which I think are improvements: 1. Pull source directly from repositories (cvs, git, etc.) PLM doesn't really track actually scm repositories. It requires directories of source code to be traversed, which are set up by creating mirrors. 2. Apply and build patches against daily updates from the repositories, as opposed to only against a specified version of the source code. Thoughts?
