This is something ive been wanting to try and do for awhile now  ive just 
never found an easy way to queue my builds based on the upstream builds.  
Without something at upstream saying go build this now.  cvs  is not right i 
could change things  even tag it but not build and id have to work out some 
way to get the right tag to build.  right now i rsync the srpm tree and queue 
all packages in alphabetical order.  so sometimes things get built out of 
order.

in infrastructure we have a huge amount of projects on the go and even more 
now with this. we could start with some simple things though  like having the 
mirror cgi setup to handle sparc, and alpha.  

Has anyone been in touch with the alphacore guys at all?
