Hey guys,
I intend to get a small Hetzner box (most probably AX41-NVMe) for buildbtw development and testing, trying a bunch of things in the capacity of a proof-of-concept. We don't exactly know where we're going with this yet. We need a hardware machine as we need it to be able to do virtualization. Hetzner cloud VMs can't do virtualization.
It will be a special gitlab-runner executor. The idea is to fork the libvirt runner and add a bunch of buildbtw-specific stuff to it.
It will not be managed by devops. I will give root to people involved in the buildbtw project. Costs will be <€40/month. It will be decommissioned after development.
Any thoughts or objections?
Hi Sven, Thanks for typing this up in a email. The plan SGTM :)
