There is absolutely no need for this - for example, if you have a
project page on Launchpad, their servers can autobuild .deb packages for
you - for all kinds of architectures and ubuntu/debian versions.
If you still want to build packages on your own server, just build them
from the github/*forge repository.

Of course it is up to you - but keep in mind that it will cost you a lot
more time (and money) to build and run an infrastructure that is as good
or better than what all these *forge sites offer you for free.

Jörg,
I agree with this completely. Why reinvent wheels? One of the forges already has everything needed by a project and is managed, updated and maintained for free. No worrying about your own server crashing. No fiddling with various bugtracker, wiki, blog, vcs, etc. setups. And you just mirror back to your own server if you feel the need to do that. And as you point out, Launchpad is very featured and can automatically generate .deb files. If you use their repository, you can always use the git-bzr plugin that allows you to work in git and still use the Launchpad bazaar seemlessly. You never know the difference.
