A 3.0-current SNAP building machine has been found!

ACC TelEnterprises & James FitzGibbon have stepped forward and
created, how shall I put it, a very *attractively* configured and
connected machine for this purpose, complete with administrative
support.

Therefore, once I have it set up to start building SNAPs, I'll start
up the cron job and have David G. point "current.freebsd.org" at this
machine so that it people can ftp the latest 3.0-SNAPs from it in the
same way they currently have releng22.freebsd.org for the RELENG_2_2
(2.2-stable) branch.

Of course, this raises an interesting question: Now that it's truly
possible to get daily releases from the 3.0 & 2.2 bits (and, if
someone else is still up to volunteer a box, I guess we could also
create a releng210.freebsd.org for the 2.1-stable branch?) - what
differentiates a "good" one from a bad one?  Which ones should we copy
over to ftp.freebsd.org, periodically?

I suppose that Terry will now suggest some sort of voting system and I
can't even say that it's such a bad idea (just so long as I don't have
to write the vote collection and tabulation software :-).

Comments?
