Folks, I was looking at the buildbots again. Do you realize that we have no OS X Snow Leopard buildbot? No Intel Leopard buildbot? Well over half of Mac users are using Snow Leopard, and we're not testing on that platform. In fact, the only Intel OS X machine we're testing on is a Core Duo, not a Core 2 Duo, and that's running Tiger.
Surely someone could volunteer an old Intel Mac to run some tests? (Actually, two someones -- we'd need separate machines for Leopard and Snow Leopard.) I'd be happy to stick it in a server room at PARC and keep an eye on it. (Right now I've got a rack full of old eMacs and a G5 running PPC buildbots.) Perhaps we could get Apple to contribute some "seconds"? I believe donations to the PSF are deductible.
