That's absolutely a great achievement for the community!  Thanks to
everyone involved on that!

Now that ppc64le is available on ci.c.o, is it possible to get the
following pull requests reviewed and possibly merged?

https://github.com/CentOS/sig-cloud-instance-build/pull/95
https://github.com/CentOS/sig-cloud-instance-build/pull/94
https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-t_docker/pull/2

One pull is 9 months old.

Josh, Brian, Karanbir - Are you able to help identifying the correct
folks/SIGs to review those pulls?

Thank you for the help!
