I am not sure about the archive format. Also, for upstream API reference, we can make a wiki page at gitlab to see the resent successful comment. It can be done using CI. Any tarball from the successful commit can be added to the wiki page with possibility to download it. This is definitely a big picture. The first step would be to establish two build systems as a transition stage, then add CI, and start exploring other options as I described.
