Last week in Raymond's dictionary thread, the topic of ARM came up,
along with the relative lack of build slave coverage. Today Trent
Nelson received the PandaBoard purchased by the PSF, and a Raspberry
Pi should be coming shortly as well.

Thanks to the PSF for purchasing and thanks to Trent for offering to
host them in Snakebite!

�That's good news. A related question about Snakebite, though. Maybe I missed something obvious, but is there an overview of how the core devs can use it? In particular, I'd want to know if Snakebite runs Python's tests regularly - and if it does, how can I see the status. How do I know if any commit of mine broke some host Snakebite has? How can I SSH to that host in order to reproduce and fix the problem? Some sort of a blog post about this, at least, would be very helpful for me and possibly other developers as well.

�That's good news. A related question about Snakebite, though. Maybe I missed something obvious, but is there an overview of how the core devs can use it? In particular, I'd want to know if Snakebite runs Python's tests regularly - and if it does, how can I see the status. How do I know if any commit of mine broke some host Snakebite has? How can I SSH to that host in order to reproduce and fix the problem? Some sort of a blog post about this, at least, would be very helpful for me and possibly other developers as well.
