already evaluated:

- all external continuous integration sites fail to provide win/linux/osx support in some way, so there is no way around a self-hosted compile farm

- there is no tool chain which supports both c++11 and win9x. win9x will be dropped.

 

current options:

 

1) github

- advantage: popular

 

2) gitlab

- same as github, but less popular?

 

3) gitlab, self-hosted

- disadvantage: custom user-management again

- potential advantage: could patchpacks use our compile farm out-of-the-box? though would we actually want to host external projects again?

- to evaluate: difference in feature-set between self-hosted and non-self-hosted

 

4) bitbucket, self-hosted

- go the full atlassian route with jira, bamboo and confluence? ... meh imho
