i386, amd64 and ppc. Overall we have 160 packs for pkg-voip in there
now. ;)

Plus the 20 packs overall from ekiga snapshots. Yet the snapshots are
not exported to pkg-voip.buildserver.net.

well, it's somewhat work in progress and it's far from complete. The
overall architecture is very close to the original debian.org archive,
yet it has been modified for less interaction required. I shall be
adding a fully comprehensive documentation when I'm happy with its
results, but right now this means fixing the whole auto-backporting
dependency hell. Moreover there is some vserver and lvm support for
buildd/sbuild on the TODO which I would like to implement to ensure a
better robustness of the build process.

basically:
http://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/
http://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/setting-up
http://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/operation
http://www.debian.org/devel/buildd/wanna-build-states

and the like. The buildd.d.o lookalike is at
http://status.buildserver.net/ from where you have also further links to
status overview and build logs as well as update-excuses.

debian/watch *AND* the get-orig-source target. For my scripts the latter
is acually required as I don't want to run the watch-update-inject
unattended. So still some developer would need to make the commit into
SVN from where the actual building will take place.
Currently the checkout is done at 09:00 CET, so packs should be
available for development work during the late hours european time.

Let's hope we'll get it more geared towards unattended package
verification. ;)
