F-20 and F-19 update-testing status

I've  been  doing F20 installs on some Mac G5s, including setting up a
local F20 build machine for F21 development.

With all of the effort and cycles (both people and CPU) being directed
to    getting  the  F21  mass  rebuild  and  branch  through,  F20 has
been deliberately getting less of both until F21 is more complete.

The primary architecture F20 and F19 updates-testing build reports are
posted   to   test at lists.fedoraproject.org   as   part  of  the  build
automation.  The  primary  arch rawhide and F21 branched build reports
are posted there too.

This weekend, I noticed that the ppc F20 updates-testing build had not
been  run in a while, and mentioned it on IRC. Apparently that was not
intended, and someone was going to follow up.

The  goal  of  the secondary releases is to track the primary releases
for  both  development and updates, but that's really on a best-can-do
basis.  Since  we  can't be perfectly aligned, it seems useful to keep
track of the differences vs primary.

For  ppc,  we  get  the  ppc64  rawhide and F21 branched build reports
posted  to  this list. I think it would be useful to also post the ppc
F20 and F19 updates-testing reports here too.

When I mentioned this over the weekend on IRC, others thought it would
be helpful. It was suggested I note the request here so it doesn't get
lost in all the F21 activity.
