Then what is the question/problem you want to address?

Building problems should be detected automatically. abuild could be
improved to allow to build non-default Kconfig configurations.

So what is the plan for the new system? A separate Web application? A
script like in flashrom to create a Wiki page automatically?

Also thinking more about it, there is another problem to only have one
version of logs per board. What happens if two people build an image
from the same revision but with different configurations, where one
works and the other does not for example?
