Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:14 sysrqb]:
 > quick update here. I like this plan in theory, where we run our own repo
 and publish updates on f-droid.org and our own. My main worry is our
 ability for running more services like this as an organization. I think
 this is something we can think about more and make plans for in the (not
 too distant) future - maybe. In the meantime, I'd like to get f-droid.org
 builds working now.

 Nice. One thing that makes me nervous with that idea is that we don't have
 a good way to test if any of the changes we make to `tor-browser-
 build`/`rbm` would suddenly break in an f-droid environment. I don't want
 to find that out while doing a critical release. Not sure if f-droid
 supports something like try pushes to test that. Or maybe we should add
 that as part of our nightly builds.
