+
+Hans-Christoph Steiner gave a progress report on testing F-Droid: we now have a complete vagrant workflow working in nested KVM!  So we can provision a new KVM guest, then package it using `vagrant box` all inside of a KVM guest (which is a profitbricks build node). So we finally have a working setup on `jenkins.debian.net`. Next up is fixing bugs in our libvirt snapshoting support.
