Sounds good :)

I did the initial setup and gave Xavier access to it one or two weeks
ago. Not sure what he did in between, but the two main missing things
that were still missing two weeks ago

- generation for the client-side certificate

- make the CVS looks-aside cache work, which uses FAS for/the
certificates for authentification

(removing the Fedora branding is also on the ToDo-List, but likely not
that urgent)

I setup the buildsys (plague) last fall a few weeks before F8 was
released -- nothing should have changed, so it should still be running
(or it should be possible to get it into a running state again without
to much work).

Please note that I'd like to update to newer plague and mock versions
sooner or later. But I'd like to delay this to later (e.g. when
rpmfusion is running), as the livna builders (which are on the same
machines) can be shut down then, which makes realizing this plan a whole
lot easier.
