We want to help. 

Could you give us a hand to get the build machinery up and running? I
found this :

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/F11_for_XO-1#Notes_on_how_to_create_XO-1_builds

but it is under revision. I think that might help in reducing the
contention. 

Once we are able to cook builds we can help to speed up the
testing/fixing process since we (our deployment team) have more time
(almost the entire day!) because of schools being on vacations. 

Thanks for your help and work!
