I think we have just the right size in terms of x86 build machines.  The
front-end itself shouldn’t also be a build machine, because it already
has enough to do (evaluations + HTTP requests, which includes providing
compressed archives on demand.)

So I would like to keep hydra.gnunet.org as a build machine and to
switch to a dedicated box for the front-end.

The FSF might be able to help with that, otherwise we’ll go ahead and
get ourselves another machine, I think.  But I think it’s time to fix
that issue now.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
