| Ok, so the IA64 build is actually quite straight forward but needs a 
| large disk. We just need to start the builders and make sure it can 
| churn through all packages done since 5.0 - if all is well, then
| things 
| *should* just build, since they did so upstream! and the i386/x86_64 
| packages for CentOS built out of the same code base. Once we can get
| to 
| the stage that 5.5 is at now, we can look at doing an iso set and
| build 
| tree.
| 
| No idea how long this is going to take. I am presently moving the 5.0
| + 
| updates tree's into place ( the src.rpms ), once that is done we can
| see 
| what sort of a buildrate we get per day and do some numbers from there
| on.
| 
| I don't want to overload dev.c.o with the output, so let me have a
| chat 
| with Ralph and Tru and we can workout what is a good place to post
| this 
| content.
| 
| Ideally, it would be good to have a Failed: report that lists the
| issues 
| encountered during the build be posted online right away. So people
| can 
| look at it and see if anything specific needs doing. For things that
| do 
| build, we can setup a six hourly 'sweep' that moves packages into
| place.
| 
| More details in a day or so.
