Here:
https://github.com/ahs3/bootstrap

I've put the link to the main page. However, the page still
requires tweaks. We've created a request for authorized project
logo that needs to be in place prior making the page public.

We currently have scripts for the first 4 stages, but the testsuite
only supports the first stage at the moment. The rest stages will be 
implemented continually.

We plan to run our own testing koji hub, but we're not there yet.
The most difficult thing is to find a suitable hardware and sufficient
storage space for rootfs snapshots in order to provide maintainers
with pre-built environments, etc. Our requirements are 'huge' and
I'm happy I was able to find acceptable builders for all the listed
architectures. We're still waiting for NFS storage for the s390 builder
and the cloud storage has only 200 GB for the snapshots. But, better
than nothing. Step by step.

I'm aware of the koschei project and keeping it in mind.

I'm not against running it anywhere if it suits our needs.

Sure. Don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks,
Jaromir.
