Yes, that's me. I'm mostly out of time right now, but I'd like to offer =
help if someone wants to pick up the project.

For those who haven't heard about it, it's a system designed =
specifically to track performance of FreeBSD over time by comparing =
revisions of FreeBSD, everything else being equal. It consists of a =
tinderbox-like build script for a build server, a script to install =
FreeBSD and run benchmarks on at least one slave, and a database-backed =
website to aggregate and visualize results.

The framework does work as-is, but it really needs to be updated: =
convert the scripts to use the SVN repo instead of CVS, improve =
visualization and search on the web fronted, and improve the =
benchmarking script so it's easier to extend. I don't have hardware =
available to run the benchmarks, but I think there's hardware available =
in the FreeBSD cluster.

Here's a link to the source code: http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.tgz
And to my thesis describing how it works: =
http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.pdf

Just send me a mail if you're interested.

Thanks,
Erik=
