Hard to beat that as a recommendation. ;)
It sounds as though alioth may not have the necessary facilities,
which is unfortunate.

<joke>Well, tla-buildpackage is written in python, so of course

Jokes aside (sorry, John, I really do like it!), I, personally, have

helped insulate me from some things about arch that I am not yet at

That said, whenever you decide you want someone external to poke at
arch-buildpackage, I'd be interested in doing so.
