How is that related? There was no OSX build slave until very recently, but binaries had been provided for years. I see no reason to stop doing so. > to hunt down issues that were introduced by other bugfixes. That's appreciated. However, I fail to see the relationship to the buildbot stable list. The port was in good shape, and *still* didn't pass all tests. That's partially because the test suite tests boundary behaviour that doesn't affect the shape of the port. > that there seem to be very few core developers that care about > OSX beyond it being some odd flavor of unix. The problem at hand is the port *doesn't* pass the test suite on a regular manner. If it would, it could be added, and somebody breaking the port could be asked to revert the change, or fix it on OSX. As it stands, changes being made cannot be easily correlated with new failures on that platform. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9048> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
