After all, the initial reason was to try to help during outage of QuickBuild due to technical problems - see the emails from that time: http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::13246 http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::5901 Therefore, package creation - compilation - publishing, everything is done on the infrastructure independent of QuickBuild. That is why Preliminary Stable Build from the very beginning is not a part of the official primary Trinity server. That's why the repository is signed with my gpg key instead of the official Trinity gpg key. At the same time there are side benefits. Preliminary Stable Builds provides some additional architectures - mips, armhf also for Ubuntu. It is less demanding to add support for new Debian / Ubuntu distributions. Some time ago, I and Tim had agreed to place Preliminary Stable Builds repository directly to the official Trinity redirector, which is under my control - mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org. That's why Preliminary Stable Builds repository is for the first time on more official location, although are still being created independently on QuickBuild. However, this does not mean that it would be a replacement for an official repository. The final releases will continue to be prepared and published using QuickBuild. By this I wanted to clarify the historical context and current state. -- Slávek
