The biggest problem I'm hitting right now is that I can't import repos.
There's something about the setup we have inside Fedora infra that
beaker's repo importing mechanism can't handle.

I keep meaning to get around to figuring out what's wrong and fix it
but as beaker is a pretty low priority right now, I never seem to get
around to it.

For now, you can find me and ask me to look at the machine itself. That
doesn't scale but for now, I'm not aware of other options.

I'd love to see that happen :)
