It's mostly due to me having started again a temporary build daemon
called swarm, after getting the agreement from the release team. It is
hosted in my home and not DSAed, so it means manual signing and so on.

This is the new hardware that was in the process of being dealt. It has
been started this morning, so it might have partly contributed to the
last point of the plot. mips-aql-01 should also be available in a few
hours.

I take the opportunity of this email to thanks all the persons who made
that possible: DSA, ImgTec for the hardware, AQL for the hosting and
probably a few other persons I have forgotten/I am not aware of.

Cheers,
Aurelien
