Tobias my point is that you can
	- copy a jenkins job :) there is even a button for that :)
	- second you can just take a process of a build and reuse the CMake generattion made by igor so the process is **documented** 
	and always exercised. So you do not have to set up a jenkins job but you can use the infrastructure put in place.
	At least I would not try to redo the work done by igor just use/modify/extend it
	 because I prefer to do something else with the time I can gain.
