Hello FreeCAD developers. I have been using FreeCAD the past several weeks and am impressed with the current capabilities and future potential across the supported platforms. I am a longtime Mac user and developer and have been working with @peterl94, @ian.rees, @sgrogan and @brusk on the Mac builds. We now have 0.16_pre Mac builds working reliably on Travis-CI and are anxious to integrate this into the FreeCAD master via a future pull-request. The goal is a unified .travis.yml configuration file that will produce both linux and mac os x builds but to achieve that goal, we still have some work to do. To progress this effort, I need guidance/help with the following:

• Mantis registration: A couple of weeks ago, I registered for a FreeCAD mantis account to open an issue for this work, but I never received the activation email. I'm not sure who to contact regarding to complete the Mantis registration... If the appropriate person reads this, please advise. Other knowledgeable people, please let me know whom I should contact and how...
• Linux/Mac OS X CI unification: The pull request will include both the Linux and Mac OS X build configuration for Travis-CI. Who is the go-to person for the Linux build configuration so I can collaborate with them off-line before creating a pull request.
• Github Deploy: Currently the Mac OS X .travis.yml file automatically deploys each build as a Github release. To migrate this capability to the FreeCAD/master repo, we will need to use the appropriate FreeCAD credentials. With whom should I work this aspect?

Cheers,
Bruce

I had a similar problem with a US internet service provider. I would suggest a PM to yorik or jmaustpc from this forum.

User PrzemoF spearheaded the integration of Travis-CI, he's on holiday, but the Linux side doesn't do any deployment at this time. Maintaining a CI functionality is what is important at this point, IMHO, does FreeCAD compile on Ubuntu 12.04? Is the needed functionality

We need to figure this out with Yorik. My scripts at the moment can create a release, but not upload assets. I'm good with adding the Windows assets to your releases.

How did you resolve it in your case? Were they filtering it as spam?
