Long term, as long as the organizations donating colocation can float the difference between the operating costs and the donations I scare up. Speaking of which, I have this paypal address... :) > - Are you interested in building downstream systems that use > live-build -like T(A)ILS- in addition to the standard Debian images? > I'm pretty sure it would add value to your testing effort to deal > with complicated configurations that make use of the full live-build > potential. I'm indifferent to what images get tested, but adding T(A)ILS to the image testing suite will impact non-T(A)ILS testing. That might be a non-issue, I'm only pointing it out because I don't know if testing is resource intensive or not. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
