We really appreciate your work on this.

Regarding the vanilla (non-AltArch) build, it looks to a noob like me that
build logs haven't been updated in about a week. (Am I looking in the right
spot?)

http://buildlogs.centos.org/c7.1611.00.a64/

How is the vanilla build progressing? Is there anything the community can
help with? Is what's available now from buildlogs expected to be pretty
similar to the final build? About how much work/time do you think is left?

Thanks,
Cov
