We had a call today to discuss build system issues.  The Notes are here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/stx-status.

The problem statement is that the current build is not stable, as the import mirror has been hard to set up for just about everyone and needs to be changed on a daily basis as packages are changed upstream.

In the short term Bruce & Brent will look into hosting options for an external (shared) import mirror.

In the long term, Saul will lead an effort to see if we can leverage https://openbuildservice.org/.  Mario and Erich will join in, with Scott and Jason.

This is the most important work going on right now, so please keep us all updated and to ask for any help needed early and often.
