given the limited hardware power we've got it's limited to pkg-voip,
pkg-gnome, pkg-kde-extra for now. It *MAY* be possible to add more
dists/sources/projects/arches, yet
right now we're already pushing the limits of the dak and friends behind
it. Personally, I'd love to have the full arch coverage, which means
we're still some 6 arches short (alpha, arm, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel -
let alone armel, armeb, hurd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, m32r).
So if someone helps me getting these scripts beyond the limits we are
already facing and assuming more hardware, we could snapshot the whole
of svn.debian.org eventually. ;)

it's lacking svn/cvs/git/hg snapshtos. Sometimes they come quite handy
or are even required due to lack of public release.

Apart from this, the one that *was* in there just before doesn't work. ;)
