[ale] Request for April 16 Presentation, ALE Central Mtg.

[Greg Freemyer]

Following up on the below, OBS released ARM support  for Debian Lenny
compile and Deb builds this morning.  If any of you are releasing
packages for embedded use, that may be of value.

Other distros to follow.  I think Opensuse is expected next.

This is the first public availability of OBS with any arm support, so
they are calling it a beta release.

There using a separate VM to compile each package and I just counted
16 arm builds going on, so it seems they have 16 arm vm's up and
running for your experimentation.
