Sure, fine - I didn't recall, my bad. But it is definitely not wired up
into the "regular VM building make script etc" - which is probably the
reason I didn't recall it actually is "scriptable".

SS is much more stable these days - even though it actually was down
today. The absolutely easiest way to host an MC repo IMHO is to use
Apache (or whatever) serving a directory readonly and then use say
pure-ftpd to give write access to the same directory using ftp (with a
user/password).
