Thank you for correcting that; I keep forgetting about that system.  Do
you know why that system never saw any real uptake?

For what it's worth, REACTS is integrated into the Gerrit workflow and
the board-status repository, and has additional tests that the older
system does not.  We are also working on extending the REACTS to support
new architectures beyond x86, and Raptor Engineering's REACTS instance
has a proven reliability track record spanning over 1 1/2 years of
continuous production operation.  Finally, we do provide the core files
under the AGPL for those with the requisite knowledge and expertise
wishing to roll their own system; the licensed REACTS copies are
intended for the commercial market where reliability, ease of use, and
availability of support are of high importance.

Thanks!
