I'm listed on: https://wiki.qemu.org/AdminContacts and have the root keys. I had given Cleber access to get the runners up and running which I thought they were: 3291365 ? Ssl 8:41 /usr/bin/gitlab-runner run --working-directory /home/gitlab-runner --config /etc/gitlab-runner/config.toml --service gitlab-runner --user gitlab-runner I'm not sure what else is needed on the HW side, it's just waiting for the gitlab bits to be plumbed in. I should mention the HW is due to be upgraded in the next few weeks but I don't expect the upgrade to affect the way we plan to use the machine. > Assuming Cleber's runner script is merged and working on the AArch64 > runner, then we need to figure how contributors can use it. > Assuming this runner will be registered under the QEMU organization > namespace in Gitlab, then contributors would have to open a Merge > Request to trigger the CI jobs (similarly to when you push to the > /staging branch).
