hehe, very nice, thank you! (and probably not coincidently, this
was on my todo list for today too, but then got scheduled to tomorrow
due to more urgent requests today.. :)

I'd still only keep those 25gb, if at all. And drop the s3 bucket.

After all, these are probably all test builds plus builds which have 
their .buildinfo files stored on buildinfos.debian.net, so I wouldn't
bother with those hundreds of gigabytes.

next question, assuming you agree ;)

when should we drop buildinfo.debian.net from DNS? June 1st 2026? Never?
Some other date?

It's not about saving the climate or the planet, it's about saving us, the
children and grandchildren. The planet will survive anyway.
