This is secondary to the Chandler build team pages (which your not  
showing)

This contains some helper cronjobs to maintain the continuous build  
links and the perf chart building code.

It's only other main script is the actual distIndex.py that generates  
the web pages.

this contains all of the tinderbox configurations and should not be  
public at all

this is where all the action is ;)

useful only as a guide to the hardware for you until you have it  
memorized :)

generated by one of the cronjobs above

handy only if you want to add *more* tboxes

the gateway to the internal build copies that the tbox clients populate


These are the pages from the ChandlerProject wiki that are key IMO:

http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/BuildingChandlerDesktop
http://chandlerproject.org/Projects/ChandlerReleaseProcess
http://chandlerproject.org/Developers/ChandlerInstallers

A good source for these links is this link: http://chandlerproject.org/Teams/BuildReleaseTeam

All of them are very current - heikki was good at spotting when I  
forgot to update them ;)
