CruiseControl Bug

Since cruise control doesn’t use a bug tracker – it only provides email lists and I don’t currently have access to my email – I’ll just report this bug here and maybe someday along the way they’ll discover it and fix the problem.

Anyway, my beef is that the cruisecontrol webapp doesn’t work with lynx because it uses a ridiculous JavaScript system to trigger new builds. Now, normally I don’t use lynx as a browser because it tends to be pretty limited, but it would be nice to be able to trigger a build remotely without having to manually parse HTML files and find the URL to ping to get a build to start. At the time I was SSH’d through two machines and then using Hamachi to get access to the actual build machine so it was a little bit difficult to use a standard browser at a reasonable speed.

Sigh.
