It's funny how this reminds me of package build failures in Debian; in such cases, we start by publishing the list of affected packages ideally with links to build logs and the name of corresponding maintainers. After a while, we actually start Cc:ing the maintainers or filing bug reports against each failing package. Would it make sense to publish such a list of broken boards and corresponding maintainers? (Maybe some makeall + scripts magic?) This is a sample list of Debian packages not declaring the upstream "Homepage" properly: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/02/msg00367.html -- Lo?c Minier
