Again, I'm not quite sure what it was.  I just don't remember.  I think
it was discussed during a Fedora board meeting.  I could ask the board
if they remembered or if minutes were taken.

So I just talked w/ one of the board members and the main reasons were
resource contention and clear separation.  So while we'd need our own
equipment and space, there isn't many reasons why we couldn't be hosted
right along side the Extras systems.  Again, this just needs to be
discussed.  We've been working fairly well with just one system to do
all our builds, and that system is in no way suitable to be colocated
with the Extras equipment.  However with me moving away from the place
that has donated hosting up until now, it makes more sense to get
systems located in a place that others can manage it.

So as far as Legacy goes, we're using the Fedora wiki, we're considering
collapsing all of our website into the Wiki, we're moving to use the
same software as Extras, moving to get our repo data in Core directly,
send announcements via fedora-announce, etc...  If our systems are in
the same place as Extras systems, and Fedora Sysadmins have access to
them as well, and we share of the publish space, is that not
integration?  I don't think we need to shove other projects onto the
same systems that do Extras builds.
