One thing could help is to check our build logs for Windows (TS builds are more often broken f.e.). We also automatic notifications for broken builds. We once send them to this list but some people complained. We may create a readonly ML for that, and for all supported platform. For example, a recent broken build (TS) mail would like: This is an automatic mail from the rmtoool's build bots. New build errors have been introduced between 489073b501473fc8d7b21fed8eb72c55e0abee80 and 489073b. The errors are: php-5.5, build ts-windows-vc9-x86: php_open_temporary_file.c, 201, error, C2065, 'tsrm_ls' : undeclared identifier, main It makes very easy to identify the gulty commit and fix it. The code to fetch from git and generate the builds (with log in html format for review) are in: http://git.php.net/?p=web/rmtools.git;a=summary Cheers, Pierre
