Fedora Infrastructure are in the middle of 2 data center moves currently
with a COVID-19 lockdown affecting our ability to give any timelines of
when things will be available. I do not think the servers will be available
until May at the earliest and they will be a lower priority than keeping
koji or other core Fedora services going.
Yeah, this sounds OK. Good luck with the movement.
Currently copr is running out of amazon and does not have emulation
capabilities either.
We already enabled emulated armhfp (on x86_64) builders in copr (that's probably
what Jun meant)... it's the software emulation by qemu-user-static (mock
--forcearch).

People were used to use native machines for ppc64le targets, so the
temporary switch to emulated variant could cause more harm then good here.
I'd rather wait till May for the native builders then mix-up.
