Thank you - I really think we'll need some help here!

We should start only with a reasonable number of targets in my eyes.
There will be a lot of issues without the ability to test the builds.

At the moment there is no physical hardware used!

...so the builds would need to be transfered after building to a
accessible place on the web?

Mee too!

@Mike: I really would like to keep this topic on the dev list! Maybe
there will be some needed changes that affect core components!

I'll seperate the wiki again from japsand as a result of the last
downtime! We could nobody inform about that issue, because the main

device!
