It's a great idea in principle for all the debian architectures to submit to the ITK dashboard -- and now that we're down to just two, we do have full coverage! :-) If we want better coverage, the hard truth is that we need more volunteers and on a sustained basis. As Dominique mentioned, policy for the official build daemon machines forbids network access from the build. So, a while back, I asked around for some other machines to use for nightly builds. I got a couple of offers of a login, but I lacked the time to set up and maintain the nightly. The other hard truth is that having a nightly build is not enough. Each architecture needs a champion who will investigate the failures, do extra testing or develop patches. The ITK community won't do it on their own. Even with a nightly build submitted to cdash. I'm willing to help out with advice but I simply lack the time to do very much follow-up for non-mainstream architectures. Truthfully, I don't have much time even for amd64 so more blood for Debian packaging would be welcome! Cheers, -Steve
