Access to some of that hardware could have helped me recently when I was
working on GPRbuild. Out of the four secondary architectures, I
eventually managed to get one of them hobbling in an emulator so that I
could troubleshoot. Then I probed the Koji instances with specially
crafted scratch builds to get the details I needed for the other
architectures. It was a quite time-consuming procedure.

Would it be possible to mention those boxes on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Machine_Resources_For_Package_Maintainers
so that packagers can find out how to access them?
