the build machines just try to build gnome 2 all day long - when one
build finishes (successful or unsuccessful) it starts another one.

successful builds get tagged as such, and each morning the most recent
successful build is pushed to the red carpet servers and ftp.gnome.org.

sometimes there aren't builds because the tree is very broken, or i'm
too busy to fix little breakage (last week with the summit).  usually it
breaks right around release time because people try to cram in new stuff
and invariably get things a little wrong.

you can track the progress of the build machines at:
