Right now for aurora im using plague and some scripts that rsync the srpms and 
queue them to build.  Any bugs that need fixing we submit patches and make 
sure they work for other archs also.

Secondary arch teams will get failure notifications. If a build fails on a 
primary arch  it must fail on secondary archs.  if a build fails on a 
secondary arch then it will not affect the primary arch.

in the new package db  we could perhaps add the ability to have maintainers be 
included/excluded from secondary archnotifications.  based on there own 
preferences.
