   It occurs to me that with some minor scripting we could automate the
   upload to occur in parallel with the build.  Upload as the packages
   are built and only have to worry about not catching the binary package
   as it is being created.  Then the uplink bandwidth wouldn't matter so
   much.

In discussion with Justin I already offered that I have a box here I 
bought for use for DF only. By next week I will have 1Mbit upload for 
this machine. In addition to your suggestion could we also find a way to 
split the build up on 2-x machines? That would make us even more 
independent of one machine and one line and speed up build & upload times.

cheers
