It'd start simple with a single VM running jenkins and the builds:

    http://honk.sigxcpu.org:8001

We can then add build slaves for other distros and operating systems step
by step. For the moment I have enough resources here. The above
currently only does make, make check and make syntax-check. I'll try to
add libvirt-tck during the next days. There's also some duning to be
done.
