Can we get a special nightly build set up that can build in the stack
and tile branch so that it can still continue to get user testing to
report bugs?

BOM can be altered to work on a branch, but i can't run two instances of it on the same machine nor use one instance to build two different repositories.

I forget exactly what part of the haiku's build system fails if parallel builds are building on a cross-platform. It might have been the bfs writer.

Right now, my two spare machines are running BOM; one for uploading nightlies and the other to test ppc & x86, including alpha-*. Also with the current way BOM does uploading, it needs to run continuously as the upload timer is kept in memory. So, running a single cycle for nightlies followed by one for stack and tile wouldn't work. Well I could wrap that in a script to manage the timing but things start to get complicated at that point.

So, if this is approved, I'd need someone with access to Haiku-Files to run BOM.
