Kimchi infrastructure logistics

Hi all,

I am very happy that kimchi has been accepted as the newest oVirt
incubator project.  Now, I look forward to working with the
infrastructure team as one of the first steps that kimchi can take to
collaborate.  The services that kimchi currently uses are: GitHub for
SCM and Wiki, Google Groups for a mailing list, and #kimchi on oftc.net
for chat.  Most of these things are working very well but I think the
great oVirt infrastructure can offer us some room for improvement:

 - Kimchi is set to release 1.0 on Monday.  I would love to host some
   pre-built packages (RPM and DEB) for our most common targets (Fedora
   19, Ubuntu 13.04, RHEL-6.4, and openSUSE 12.3).  Could some storage
   space be arranged in your current download area for this purpose?

 - Google Groups is awful as a mailing list.  Our project is
   internationalized and messages encoded in UTF-8 are mangled by
   Google's servers.  I look forward to moving patch discussion onto an
   oVirt list such as kimchi-devel at ovirt.org.

At this time we are very happy to continue code review on the mailing
list so we will not be needing any gerrit services.

Are the above items feasible?  Is there anything I can do to help with
setup?  Thanks for your help and we look forward to doing some cool
things with Kimchi and oVirt.
