11	11	The basic idea is to have a number of client machines that perform cyclic builds of OSG and its main dependencies automatically. During the build process these machines would send status updates to a server through an internet connection. The server would collect the information sent by clients in order to fill a public web page with build logs and status reports.

13		To provide reliable information, all client machines should perform build cycles at a reasonable rate, for example once a day. Alternatively they could be triggered by changes in the SVN repository (not yet implemented). Of course the source code has to be updated from the SVN server before starting every build cycle. At the moment there are two clients active, one !WinXP system (GCC-MinGW) and one Linux system (GCC), both performing a complete build cycle every night.
