Hi Anthony, I would like to get the Travis tests up and running on the "official" QEMU GitHub mirror to try and shorten the loop between the build breaking and people being notified. I'm quite happy to set this up if you add me to the QEMU organisation (my GitHub username is: stsquad).
There are also hooks I can set-up into IRC so the #qemu channel can be notified when the build breaks. We can also experiment with auto-testing pull requests but I think the first step is to ensure master is fixed as soon as possible when the build breaks.
