<p>Hi Alessandro,</p>
<p>Thanks for your information.</p>
<p>I just want to hear other core devs' opinions if this would be useful for <a href="http://QGIS.ORG" target="_blank">QGIS.ORG</a>. <a href="http://QGIS.ORG" target="_blank">QGIS.ORG</a> infrastructure is already complex and mainly only Jürgen, Richard and partially Tim understand the infrastructure partially. If we start something new I would like to see a long-term commitment from someone to maintain it (lets say at least for the upcoming year from the start on).</p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I totally agree, I'm not pushing for AWS expecially because the nightlies are still available, just trying to offer a solution to a problem, and the solution is still available (as long as Boundless doesn't switch off the nightlies), when I was in Boundless we went through the same problem 2 years ago, we tried automated docker builds and they timed out (like Denis said) so we went for AWS and it has been working reliably for 2 years, it may just require small adjustments when new dependencies are added (like with Qt 9.1 for 3D).</div><div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">BTW, I believe that a publicly available nightly docker for Python plugins Travis-CI testing is beneficial for everybody and increases plugins quality, I'm just sad when I see people reinventing the wheel.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I would be happier if a company committed to sponsor and long-term maintain this part of the infrastructure, today it's up and running and QGIS master nightly docker images for CI are generated and publicly available, but we don't know about tomorrow.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature">Alessandro Pasotti<br>w3: <a href="http://www.itopen.it" target="_blank">www.itopen.it</a></div>
