Couple quick questions:

1) Is there an effort to build against unstable in addition to testing?

2) Do you have more detailed information on how someone can set up
cran2deb with the cronjobs that you are running? [Specifically, I'd
like to build the set on powerpc, unstable, as I use a mixture of
amd64, i386 and powerpc.]

Thanks for the effort, though! I've been sort of hoping and waiting
for something similar to come along.
