I'm still a little unclear on the release process. What distinguishes an
integration build from a nightly build?
Todays integration build on M6 has errors, but then I don't recall ever
seeing the green checkmarks until the milestone builds became available.
If I'm looking for a more recent build than M3 , do I keep looking at
nightly builds until I see green checkmarks, or do I wait for another
integration build? Will it come on a fixed schedule, or do you create new
integration builds until there are no errors?
Thanks!

I-builds are due every Thursday. Discussion of status and readiness is conducted on wtp-dev.
For example, we are re-doing the 4/7 I-build now.
Nightly builds are seldom suitable for use. I-builds are intended to be usable as
development targets. Are goal is all green check marks, but sometimes declared
usable even if not ... unfortunately, for now, the only way to know is to follow
wtp-dev (there's even been much recent discussion there on changing this procedure :)

The recents IBuilds are all useable even though they have red X's. The
red X is due to failing JUnits tests. We always check the sanity of a
IBuild before declaring it. Moving forward you should see red X's go
away green tick marks on integration builds as we are in the process of
making sure all JUnits tests pass too for integration builds. If you see
red X then can make sure by clicking on the red X to see if there are
any compile errors and if the red X is just because of failnig JUnits.
You are better off picking up integration builds rather than nightly
builds as they are sanity checked
