I'm not volunteering for the job :-)

But your mail rises two questions:

* do we have a recent wheezy rebuild - ideally post-release and error-free?

* AWS (I never looked into this) might be a possibility to run
piuparts-slaves, especially for doing quick re-checks. The last full
recheck I did locally was a distupgrade squeeze2wheezy [i386] without
installing recommends, took about 4-5 days on a quad-core i7 with 16 GB
RAM running 8 slaves and doing the tests on tmpfs.
