Hi Namrata,

thanks for getting back to me.

Note that I'm working on the .deb packages for Debian and Ubuntu. For
.rpm (RHEL, SLES) you need to get Devrim on board. (I'm putting him on
Cc.)

To be able to keep up with the other architectures when building
binaries for PostgreSQL releases, the machine would have about the
same specs as the existing arm64 or ppc64el build daemons:

VMs: 1
OS: Debian buster
vCPUs: 8
Memory: 16 GB
Storage: 100GB (most of that is swap space for tmpfs)

What does T&C mean? Not sure which body on the PostgreSQL side would
be able to sign something. We are an open source project after all.

Thanks,
Christoph
