If we are going to require redundancy, I think we should do it better and add: - at least two buildd administrators

For example both public debian m68k machines are located on the same window sill at the Univ. of Duesseldorf. IMHO not the best place to position important infrastructure.
I agree. A sturdy table, or even a shelf or server rack would be a much better place ;-)
Just out of curiousity (and speaking as a non-DD that has been trying to follow the flood mails over the last few days), why is it that I seem to remember numerous offers of infrastructure support to Debian in the way of hosting and machines but there still appears to be a dearth of resources?
