Multiple VMs would be overkill. Re-processing everything (as required to update the results for a new lintian version) takes 4-5 days, so that's probably acceptable. I thought the general goal was to have official Debian services run on DSA-controlled infrastructure. In that case it's true that it's only the data acquisition part that is running outside DSA-controlled infrastructure. We can leave it like that (and it's not that hard to transition later, the worker is mostly stateless).

That could be useful if you turn lintian.d.o into a static page saying it has been shutdown, and want to point somewhere to help people transition. Lucas
