Will do. Jacob, I am interested in doing this nice to have. 
I don’t think a budget should be assigned to it, I’m happy
to do this to help out and learn.

I have a Ryzen 2600X 6 core, 12 thread, 32 GB memory, 
500 GB ssd, rx 570 4GB desktop that I use to do some 
work on the evenings and weekends. I’d be happy to set 
this up on there if you want to use your old rig for other 
Debian CI.

I will put my other responses and question in the bug 
report that I’m about to create.
