For Debian autobuilders, DSA has agreed to host a machine, so we've got
that ready as a start. Unfortunately, only Dirk and I (I believe?) have
the ability to login to that machine.

Would have the same problems as Penn, and I'm unlikely to be at UofI
long-term.

Perhaps contacting OSU and/or Gandhi or similar might be acceptable if
we need machines? Maybe we could also get amazon or similar to donate
space/time, since the packages produced would be of great utility to
people using the cloud for analysis as well?
