do you also know about the sid2testing distribution we're testing on piuparts.d.o to find problems before packages migrate to testing?! > 2.

That wiki page is about setting up piuparts in master-slave mode to test a full repo (eg a private one). While this is possible with piuparts in sid (+jessie+wheezy+squeeze) the upcoming 0.52 release shall have further polished piuparts-master and piuparts-slaves packages simplifiying this further. If you have any questions about running piuparts, please just ask, preferedly on debian-qa@l.d.o cheers, Holger
