Things you should know about the CI

Introduction

For continuous integration we use Murdock. You can reach it at http://ci.riot-os.org. Most jobs there are configured to react on merging PRs and some react on special comments by certain users in a PR, but other scenarios (building in intervals, etc) are possible to.
