Nicolas, do you think it's ok as it is?

I'm undecided on this. I see with your point, but OTOH I would be happy if 
$someone pops up, contributes a hunge working code chunk to jenkins.d.n.git 
and goes away. As long as there is documentation… and in the reprotest case I 
think finishing up the documentation could actually be an outreachy (part) 
task…

Yup, there are definitly better. reprotest still needs a driver…
