All started with this email: http://lists.debian.org/debian-arm/2006/08/msg00151.html ARM was *in danger*, a lot of stuff (java, xulrunner, mono, ...) were not working correctly. People worked hard to fix that, but it was very difficult to get packages depending on fixed stuff to get requeued. Also a lot of "arch-specific compile errors" were actually due to build daemon problems. I have decided to help the ARM port at that time, and I am building around 20 packages per week on my NSLU2 since this moment (the glibc being frozen, I don't have test build to do). It takes me a lot of time, so I decided to automate the process with build daemons. We will see the evolution of the ARM port without those uploads. I know at least two packages with RC bugs which won't move to testing because one of the ARM build daemon have (recurrent) problems (and it's not netwinder nor elara). And this time I won't be able to build them by hand. -- .''`.
