I am one of the build guys over at Mozilla; I would be really curious
to know your initial impressions and how you use tinderbox. We are looking
at improving our own build infrastructure, so I have been watching
this conversation with some interest, and trying to get a feel for 
what else is out there (buildbot seems quite popular).

What version of tinderbox are you looking at? Also are you considering
doing releases from it, or just using it as a sanity check (e.g. 
"continous integration" vs. "autobuilder")?


Thanks,
