This would be really awesome to have all those builds.  pbuilder is a  
very powerful tool, but sadly, the Pd-extended package is a big hack  
and not created in a way that'll let you use pbuilder, as far as I  
know.  Instead, I've been setting up chroots with debootstrap.  The  
build scripts can already handle many chroots as long as they are in / 
var/chroot.

My wife and I just had a baby one week ago, so I can't go this year.   
I've been to every other, and almost nothing else would have made me  
miss the PdCon.  Its always been a great time and immersive experience.
