I assumed that creation of installer binaries for a release depends on having the release manager or a lieutenant have access to the given platform (Windows, OS/X) and tools, For instance, the RM or lieutenant might only have access to such a platform part-time (e.g., only while at work, or only at home). In such a case, providing additional hardware could expedite creation of the binaries. I'm sorry if I misunderstood the issue.
