Hey Supreeth, I always like to see some interest in CI!

The best way to get a machine on the CI list is to donate a server to be
used as a jenkins build worker :)

https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/wiki/OpenBMC-Infrastructure-Workgroup#current-infrastructure 
covers our current infrastructure.

The goal with CI is to test as much as possible, as quickly as possible. The machines
selected for CI try and cover as many different meta-* layers as possible. So the second
way is to make the argument that your machine and the layers it test would provide
good testing and coverage for the community.

https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc/wiki/Adding-a-System-to-Hardware-Continuous-Integration could
also be used as a way to build and test your system via your own CI process and 
build machines and then updating the gerrit review with your results.

I do feel like we’ve been looking for a long time for a easy to get and cheap
OpenBMC reference platform that people could utilize for development. Be
great if y’all were working on something like that!

Andrew
