I want to offer hardware (build servers) and I also want to volunteer time for cleaning up packages.
Because this comes up again and again and again I just want to quantify that buildservers are only helpful if you can ship them out to be located next to or very near the existing setup. Unless the resource itself can be assured to / with the same level of trust as the existing platform, the chances of that resource getting used are very slim.
Consider this: would you run packages that were built on $random site, with little or zero assurance of what, why and who has access to the machines ? I wont :)
