+NOTES FOR EMACS CONTINUOUS BUILD ON HYDRA
+
+A continuous build for Emacs trunk can be found at
+http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/emacs-trunk
+
+* It builds (and runs ERT tests) on these platforms:
+i686-cygwin
+i686-freebsd
+i686-linux
+x86_64-darwin
+x86_64-linux
+
+* Mail notifications
+Hydra sends notifications about build breakages in Emacs trunk to
+emacs-buildstatus@gnu.org.
+
+If you want to receive these notifications, please subscribe at
+http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-buildstatus
+
+* The Emacs jobset consists of the following jobs:
+
+** The `tarball' job
+which gets the source tree as input, and is just a `make dist' after
+some autoconf/-make or bootstrap script.
+
+** The `build' job
+which gets the result of the tarball job as input, together with
+system identifier, this job basically does a normal make, make check,
+make install.
+
+** The 'coverage' job
+is now running `make check'.
+
+* Other GNU packages
+For a list of other GNU packages that have a continuous build on
+Hydra, see http://hydra.nixos.org/project/gnu
