What is Project-Builder.org ?
Project-Builder.org is a GPL tool for simplifying the process of building packages for multiple operating systems from source. The source can come from version control or from tar files, the packages can be build on pre-installed Remote Machines (RM) over ssh, on Virtual Machines (VM) on the local host, or inside a Virtual Environment (VE aka chroot) on the local host. The configuration files for Project-Builder.org are stored in subversion and are used to control the method by which the packages are created. Further details can be found on that page and in a detailed walkthrough of using Project-Builder.org available as http://trac.project-builder.org/browser/devel/pb-doc/LabProject-Builder.org.pdf
