Yahoo hosts build slaves for Hadoop and other ASF projects. Since Hadoop development community requested to keep slaves separated from other ASF projects, Infra team doesn't want to maintain it. Machines in Y! data center (minerva, vesta, etc) are in apache.org domain and are managed by ASF infra. The rest, asf*.ygridcore.net are managed by me. Most of the accounts those boxes are not Yahoos. Any commiter, independent of their employer, can get access and the expectation the it would only be used for builds. This restriction was put in to stop people from using these as their personal dev boxes. I apologize for not responding soon. Alejandro did send me an email about this. It's been a crazy week. > > Thanks, > Roman.
