Yes, please lez us discuss this item at the summit... IMO there is a
general need for infratructure which all people should be able to use
(similar to a mixture of what I originally proposed for this summit and
what currently runs as prototype build farm at logical-approach ... and
"yes"... I'm a bit fed-up with this topic since it is one of the major
items which prevents people from doing contributions to opensolaris.org)
