Re: Automated releases
Having done work setting up britney for m68k, it's painful at times. I could probably setup my local britney instance to also work for Hurd (its down at the moment due to HDD failure), but I expect a lot to break if its compared against any other architectures (m68k has an outdated glibc, which caused a lot of issues when it was compared to other architectures). Once I get my devel server back up, I'll look into running britney for hurd-i386.

But it still requires someone to set it up, adapt it to our archives, etc. Also, it's not always smart enough to automatically migrate packages -- sometimes it requires manual hinting. -antrik-
