the CSSU repos are already hosted on maemo infra. We don't want a autobuilder on that since users are not supposed to contribute stuff for CSSU-* only. And we wouldn't have the manpower to set up and maintain such autobuilder anyway. QA for CSSU is not done by *-devel/testing/- repo stages and thumbs-up/down by testers and public review of sources, but simply by maintainers of the particular repo compiling existing checked sources on their local PC and then every now and then packaging and rolling out a CSSU update by uploading already built binaries to the repository.

Please don't answer to this post in this thread, since it's basically 100% off-topic in here.

cheers
