In every official release, please
I have some rockin' ideas for iOS with Newton, and getting the Newton logo onto iPhone/iPad can only be a good thing surely?

I'd volunteer to maintain it - but I have so little spare time it'd fall by the way-side

I'm not sure if anyone on Newton uses/has used Continuous Integration? Jenkins/Hudson(whatever it is these days) is free, and can be ran on Windows/Linux/Mac - a server can use satellite machines as build agents, so one commit to SVN will trigger multiple builds. Of course, that only helps if you have three machines lying about

I know that sounds like a lot of effort - but it's invaluable in the long run.

You'd need a machine for each target platform. It then has a build agent on it which Jenkins can notify when a updated build is needed.
It should be possible for people to allow their own machines to be come an agent - ie. if I had a Mac Mini here I could slap the agent on it, point it to your own Jenkins CI server, and whenever I turned it on (or if I left it on) it would get latest from SVN, build and then could auto-commit the binaries back to SVN.
It sounds straightforward - but as usual there'd be a bit of messing about involved. But once it's running, it'd be great infrastructure to have going forward.
