Introduction for GSoC - Darsh

[Rajdeep Bharati]

Hi Darsh

There are quite a few small tasks pending in the build infrastructure
project from last year.

I guess the first thing you can do is set up a buildbot instance (refer
docs: https://docs.buildbot.net/latest/), and also read up a bit on how
buildbot works.

The latest buildmaster configuration (2.x) is available here:
https://github.com/macports-gsoc/macports-buildbot.

The custom views plugin is available at
https://github.com/macports/buildbot-macports-custom-views and you can use
it in your buildbot instance.

Some issues need to be fixed in the buildbot codebase:
https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Agsoc2019
(these
are mainly concerned with making the UI more scalable).

I'm afraid someone else would have to help with the vulnerability detection
project.

Cheers,
Rajdeep
