Now. Our previous infrastructure with self-hosted runners is broken just
now, when we have the money. And we need to fix it to start using them.

This will allow us to speed up our builds a lot - but we need someone who
might complete the dev-ops work on setting up Kubernetes Controller as a
self-hosted runner on AWS.

This work has been largely completed by Hussein before -
https://github.com/actions/actions-runner-controller - but it needs to be
wrapped up, completed and authentication set-up with the ASF
infrastructure. I believe Hussein has a bit less time now, but we need at
least one or two people who would like to lead completion of it and I am
sure Hussein, myself, Ash will want to be involved - I think we want to
avoid the situation we had before that generally on Ash was able to fix
things that were broken. And pretty much only I was able to act on some
parts of it - like deploying a new runner to our image.

We want to avoid a bus factor here again.

Luckily - this time we are betting on a proven and standard approach that
is prepared by GitHub, So - unlike the previous solution - this will be
largely just deploying what is there and some discussions with the ASF
Infrastructure team to connect the controller (and they've done that in the
past for other projects).

So we are looking (among committers) - for people who would be willing to
take on the work. I am super happy to help, but I really want to take a
back-driver seat this time around.

Can we have someone who would like to lead it - and likely someone else to
do it together ? I imagine we will end up with a simple doc describing the
deployment and typical operations we will do there - similarly as we do
with release management now - so that eventually more people might help in
case we need some changes etc.
