Re: Proposal to improve communication and make more efficient the inclusion of new branches.

 

Hi, Денис (copy-pasted, sorry if it's not your name, but I don't know
cyrillic),

I know too about runbot availability to run locally downloading source
code, but the added value of runbot is to have it on-line, as Travis CI
does. Anyway, I also see more interesting Launchpad / GitHub debate.
@Fabien, have you talked about the switch internally?

Regards.
