I suppose, yes. 

Longer term, I think we get CRAN itself to make room for this.

But shorter/medium term, we need to iron out bugs in the script(s) and get
them better. So I *really* appreciate that you're pushing the issue right now.

At least in theory we should be able to use alioth. Haven't tried in
practice, though.

Cheers, Dirk
