It consists of 12 servers of which 11 are currently in use (I broke one by accidentally deleting the bootloader, oops). The head of this build farm is available as . It currently builds substitutes for x86_64. Feel free to use it to satisfy your substitution needs. You will have to authorize the build farm=E2=80=99s signing key to use the substitutes: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- wget https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix/maintenance.git/plain/hydra/k= eys/guix/berlin.guixsd.org-export.pub sudo su guix archive --authorize < berlin.guixsd.org-export.pub exit --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- This build farm uses Cuirass, which is still much less convenient than Hydra, but I hope that by using it in production we will have a better understanding of what features we will need to implement next. I should also say that I have previously observed truncation of substitutes on slow connections and I suspect that there=E2=80=99s a prob= lem with the firewall settings at this site. I=E2=80=99ll keep investigating= this. Thanks to Ludo and Andreas for the assistance with debugging the configuration and setting up DNS, and to the MDC Berlin (the institute where I spend most of the daylight hours of the week) for not only letting me use the servers but also for hosting them. -- Ricardo
