To follow-up on Jakub's announcement:
As part of the process of establishing a lab for CI the TSC is looking for
suppliers for HW hosting and (optionally) CI contracting services. So if
anyone has contacts and so on to this end please feel more than welcome to
contact Jakub and myself who are coordinating this activity within the TSC.
