Talking from my own point of view,  need more people involved on the 
development team.

I'm glad to see that there is an increase on the users reporting issues, 
and some testing changes, which is great, but we still lack some hands 
fixing them.

I'll be setting some starting guides in order to point out new users / 
developers that would like to join the development effort, I'm still 
pondering on what would be the best approach ;-)

Ecne might be a great opportunity for it, definitely something to 
discuss about next time the dev team meets.

This would certainly help on the decision making process, as a hard 
requirement is to have hardware to run the builds at.
