Well, maybe I should have mentioned it, but that is exactly my point :
the OpenSuSe  Build Service is also open source (GPLv2) .

See also http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?opensuse for
access to the sources.

So basically, there are (at least) two opensource 'buildfarm' systems
that are being developed now. I know that there are probably a lot
differences between the SuSe and RedHat distributions, but it makes
sense to me to check if their build system and plague can benefit from
each other.
