digitalmars.D - Anyone needs a MIPS32 build server?

Got my hands on dual-core 1.2Ghz MIPS box, I plaed to use it for 
various experiments and as NAS / media center.

Now I realized  someone in D comunity might need a MIPS32 build 
server - in such a case reply in this thread or shoot me an email.

Hi, thanks! I already have access to 3 MIP64 boxes which have the mips32 toolchain available as well (the description in the README says that it's an EdgeRouter Pro). But you are always welcome to give building gdc a try anyway, and send us the testsuite results! (make check-d) I doubt we're at the point yet where building natively on MIPS as part of some CI is really necessary, besides your box will just be constantly hammered by weekly sync updates. :-) Iain.

Oh, cool. And yeah, I'll definitely play with D language on the box one day. Mostly looking at LDC though but GDC might be better option platform stability wise.

Yeah, that would be mildly inconvenient ;)

Did you already try LDC with it? LDC should support MIPS32 at least to some degree; we have druntime modifications for it. cheers, Johan

Tons of real-world stuff flowing in my way these days despite the "freeze" of the economy. As I put it "all of the work eventually flows to those capable of doing it" in any org. Anyhow I'll give it a shot some time soon and will ping you guys back if something is (not) working.
 cheers,
