Hi,
Here is an example where the CI has run on a recent patch - yesterday - https://review.openstack.org/557256
Thanks

    Thank you for bringing the root cause to our attention and I'm sorry we 
    made a mistake that broke the driver. You are right that the VMware CI 
    vote should have been taken into consideration and that the VMware 
    subteam members should have been added as reviewers on the patch.
    
    It was not my intention to blame the VMware CI for not voting enough. I 
    just wanted to know what happened to it and whether or not it is being 
    maintained.
    
    I would like to see the VMware CI running again and it need only run on 
    changes under the nova/virt/vmwareapi/ tree, to save on your resources. 
    And on our side, I'd like us to add VMware subteam members to VMware 
    driver patch reviews (I believe most of the active team members are 
    listed on the priorities etherpad [0]) and to be sure we consult VMware 
    CI votes when we review.
    
    Best,
