Initial support for the Cross Builder
Initial support for the Cross Builder
Goals:
- Have a predefined pkg set to use (can be more than one, like linaro-alip and ubuntu-core)
- Builds going on daily (or similar) against this package set
- Logs published at people.
- Logs must be separated enough to be useful initially, but no need of a web interface
- Instructions for people to set up the cross builder locally, and feed with a custom package set

Whiteboard
[rsalveti, 11 Oct, 2011] Approved for 11.10 but I believe you need to update the work items list to match the goals.
[asac, 18 Oct, 2011]: whiteboard work items need to be kept up to date; if no progress ensure you drop comment in whiteboard about current progress/blocked state and your attempts for INPROGRESS items. Also be more verbose/explicit about the plan in the summary of the blueprint; you could explain for instance, what the buildd environment is and how that is supposed to work.
[dzin, 18 Oct, 2011]: restore comments
[dzin, 25 Oct, 2011]: Wookey, what is the blockage on this work item?
