Continuous integration is all the rage these days and tinderboxing is the
obvious way to go concerning Gentoo. AFAIK, Toralf is the only contributor
doing tinderboxing out of his own will. In reality, we should have a team of
devs looking after our own tinderboxes instead of relying on the community.

I'm wondering if we could start a donation campain for this project and ask
people if they've got spare machines laying around. I know a lot of folks are
reading this mailing list so maybe asking on gentoo-dev first for a start would
be appropriate.

Otherwise, can the Foundation sponsor the purchase of a couple of servers?
