It's a low-volume list with "guilty until proven innocent" moderation :). Your first message made it through, but whoever approved it didn't have time to properly respond (and I haven't had such a chance either). > I am working with a small group of people to port CPython to Emscripten > (and maybe eventually WASI).

Our resource suggestions are probably rather out of date, but mostly just from a speed perspective. For example, my `ware-gentoo-x86` worker has only 2 GB of RAM. It doesn't run all of the bigmem tests, but it's still effective if rather slow. > Just to make sure I understand the process, since Emscripten is unlike the > other builders in that it uses a custom toolchain, it looks like I will > need to modify the buildbot code to add an EmscriptenBuild?

We need a second build for freezing modules. You're blazing new trails here, so I'm afraid you're largely going to be on your own. Our build master configuration can be found at https://github.com/python/buildmaster-config/ and the bits you'll most likely need to add to are in https://github.com/python/buildmaster-config/blob/main/master/custom/factories.py and https://github.com/python/buildmaster-config/blob/main/master/custom/builders.py. It should (hopefully, it's been a while since I tried :)) be relatively straightforward to get a copy of the master running locally to test against. Feel free to make whatever PR(s) you need, and hopefully one of us will get a chance to review quickly. I can't make any guarantees about my own availability to review, but I will do my best to answer any other questions you have. Thanks for working on this!
