Thanks! It is clearly a very good move.

Just one little thing: it is not clear to me why you did source+binary uploads
and not source-only uploads. In particular, this implies that we do not have
build logs for amd64 packages. In the future, please do source-only uploads,
except if there is a good reason for not doing it (e.g. NEW uploads).

Wow, what a roadmap for 2018!
