I'm thinking of something where you could push a set of patches to zizzer or daystrom, then remotely kick off a job on zizzer that creates a new repo, pushes those patches, and runs regressions. This would be an interim solution for regressions that use files we can't distribute, and even once that issue is addressed it would still have some value in letting people test with the OS/compiler/tool versions on zizzer so there aren't as many surprises once code is committed and the official regressions run.
