hi folks -- I just wanted to confirm that the Ursabot CI jobs that went down a few weeks ago won't be coming back, at least not in the Buildbot form factor. The Buildbot master was hosted on a physical machine which suffered some kind of network configuration problem during a Linux update that I don't have the sysadmin skills to resolve, so that machine has been wiped and with it the Buildbot setup.
There are some jobs that were being run on these machines (CUDA, large memory tests) that still need to be run. I highly recommend that we move these to physical machines that report in to our free Buildkite org (https://buildkite.com/apache-arrow), that way things will be less brittle and machines can easily come and go without any involvement from ASF Infra (which is why I've been against self-hosted GitHub Actions). Thanks, Wes
