Thanks MaJoR. I'm about to turn in for the night, but I'll jump on tomorrow and find out more.

delroth: what do you think about a "buildbot" which doesn't build at all but just upload anything to a ppa?

Would be VERY nice.

I'm volunteering for that project. I don't know the devilish details of your download system, but I'm a Zend Certified PHP5 Engineer with 10 years of experience writing PHP professionally. I'm also an Ubuntu user and I'm adept with Gnu build tools, so I can probably figure it out.

Thank you so much for volunteering

Get Ubuntu or Debian to package us then. We have very little control on that.

Our website is not PHP, it's based on Python/Django.

The details of the download system requirements is that we are currently hardcoding download types (one field in the DB per version to download) and we want to make that dynamic instead so we can add new download types without removing old ones or accumulating fields in the DB. Bonus points if you add a system to tag builds so we can add user visible comments ("broken, do not use"). Oh, and of course this needs to retain all of our current data and all of our current features, including the OS auto-detection.

It just so happens that I have also used Django since about 2008. I've contributed a couple of small patches and doc fixes to the project itself.

Can you check in the code to a bitbucket/git repo so I can have a look and send PRs?

I'll get on dolphin-dev this afternoon.

I think I have everything here that I need to get started, except maybe a db dump from production with the current download system data. I'll jump on #dolphin-dev when I need that.

RE: dolphin-emu abandoned for ubuntu ? - delroth - 05-06-2014

I'm likely to be VERY busy until next wednesday, so please don't take my lack of answers for lack of interest in your work Smile Feel free to mail me questions, I'll probably read my email more than my IRC backlog: delroth@dolphin-emu.org
