The problem isn't really 'powercycle privileges', but 'sysadmins looking
after the machines'  (the former should come with the latter.) I haven't
been involved with the setup and maintenance of these machines, and I
shouldn't be the only one who can powercycle them -- everyone with root on
the machine really should be able to, and everyone on roto-root...@wooz.org(the
non-python.org list of admins) has received instructions at one point or
another (actually,  multiple times now.)
