Thanks for working on cloudifying the autopkgtest infrastructure!

I have a question. While those of us at Canonical are blessed with free
access to a cloud to run these tests on (Canonistack), Ubuntu developers
in general aren't. Is there a zero cost cloud available to Ubuntu
developers that we can use for this purpose? Or, could there be a way
for Ubuntu devs to trigger a DEP8 test run for (say) a particular PPA
upload? Then it would run in the production environment and so you'd get
accurate results.

Cheers,
