Thanks for taking some initiative, setting this up, and providing both your time and hardware to *vastly* expand the power of the ARM buildds! Now, let's integrate that into the regular buildd system by [doing some productive action ...]" So, Mr. DPL -- if this is *not* happening because no one is communicating, or whatever, can you please take some responsibility here? Help communication, assign more delegates, or work this yourself? -- Wesley J. Landaker <wjl@icecavern.net> <xmpp:wjl@icecavern.net> OpenPGP FP: 4135 2A3B 4726 ACC5 9094 0097 F0A9 8A4C 4CD6 E3D2
