Nut upsdev - Nov 2012 - polling Buildbot and Trac

Please respect the robots.txt files on our developer websites.
trac.networkupstools.org and buildbot.networkupstools.org are hosted on a small
shared server, and I would appreciate it if the polling and mirroring were kept
to a minimum.

In particular, the SVN changes in Buildbot are only checked every 10 minutes,
and Trac synchronizes even less frequently. Polling buildbot 24/7 at a
sub-10-minute interval (especially with a full web browser) is a waste of your
bandwidth and mine. If you want to mirror Trac, it is far more efficient to
mirror the source SVN repository (which may bother the Alioth admins, but that
is outside of my control).

If you have a legitimate need for this, please email me off-list and we'll
discuss it further.

Thanks,

@Charles: do you have any update on this point?
Today, Monday, the master page (buildbot.networkupstools.org) is still not
reachable.

@the list: I second Charles message: we, the NUT team and project, don't
have much resources to work collaboratively!
We are pouring a lot of personal money and time to make this project
successful.
But considering our growing backlog (and I'm the first to
"blame"), such
things are threatening even more our progress.

If you want us, the NUT team, to support you, the NUT users, please help
and support us!

cheers,
Arnaud
