Indeed, I'm going to carve out some time over the Christmas/NY break to work on this. There should really be a "Developer's Guide" that explains how to get the most out of the network. Thanks, indeed a more permanent place would be nice. So from reading the above, am I correct in the understanding that these hosts don't actually run tests at the moment? They only do if we log into them to test stuff? I think it would be really nice if they could actually run as buildbot slaves and execute Python tests continuously.
