Yes, there is definitely interest in working out some scheme that
benefits everybody. In fact, Philipp Kern tried to get hold of you via
IRC some days ago, but it seems mail would have worked better. :-)
sbuild looks like a good first candidate to work on, though I'm told it
needs some changes (not fully compatible with raff's wanna-build, I
think), and ultimately coordination with each buildd admin.
