How does this compare for most open source groups to the option of using Hudson on their own servers? Also, I looked at their list of planned hosts--I didn't see windows. A number of the open source projects that I release are cross platform. Does anyone have any insight if they plan to add instances of windows (xp, vista, 7) for testing? I guess I'll have to wait and see when it's open for general testers.
It differs in that this isn't just Hudson or some other testing software. We're providing a self service cloud that open source projects can use in lieu of Amazon, Linode or other paid providers.
Eventually windows support will be added. KVM/Xen supports it, so Ganeti does also. Where we're lacking is code to deploy a windows image on demand using Ganeti. We've started talking about how to implement it, but linux and unix based environments remain our primary target.
