I am not sure that Travis supports Python on OSX.... and it might take some time until there is support for Python on Windows and I am not sure if Travis-ci.org will support this free of charge. I think that we can have both... and in the first instance automatically trigger Travis-CI builds and manually trigger buildbot builds. ---------- GitLab is an option, as I think that they allow you to bring your own build slaves.... but I think that the current buildbots are fine. -- Adi Roiban
