yes, there is a nightly build (it changes every night...)
http://www.ovirt.org/Yum_repo_file
set nightly to enabled (maybe need to disable the others).
that's for fedora - I think we have one for .el6 now with 3.2.1
supporting it.
eyal/moran?
for master branch yes:
current nightly builds are done for fedora 17/18:
http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/nightly/rpm/Fedora/{17|18}
and for EL6:
http://resources.ovirt.org/releases/nightly/rpm/EL/6/
for 3.2.1, we don't have nightly builds, just stable release:
