CI Server Progress

[Andrew Starks]

Wanted to update everybody on where the CI server is at.

Got a Mac Mini for the task, last week. Had to sit on it until last
night. It's configured thusly:

256GB SSD
1TB Spinny (backup VMs and TimeMachine)
16GB RAM
4-Core i7
OS X Mountain Lion
VM Ware Fusion

As of right now:

Windows 7 64-bit is done. (May make second VM for Jenkins. Not sure.)
WIndows XP - not done and will take some time (patch after patch after patch :P)
VisualStudio 2012 DE - downloaded. Not installed or patched.
Ubuntu Server- Downloading (may use for Jenkins, not sure). May go
with Desktop version for VM.
Mac OSX Lion - downloaded. ready to make into VM
Snow Leopard - don't have. Might be able to find it, though
Mountain Lion - downloading. will make VM

Will install Jenkins server. Not sure about whether to put it on
Ubuntu or on a Windows VM. I may do it on a Windows VM, although that
may make the system a bit slower, it probably doesn't matter.

The setup:

It will run in a DMZ on our network. I'll let Peter decide what to
expose, etc. The man in charge of our network left early, so setting
up the static IP and such will have to wait until next week. :(

I may need to take it home with me, so that I can keep patching and
baby sitting it. That's probably fine, as Peter can use it from my
home network.

That's all for the CI update. Wish I was further along, but it's looking good.

Thank you ever so much for this contribution, Andrew. It makes so much
more possible.
