Easy access to external repositories.

[David Strubbe]

The buildslaves begin shortly after each commit. The delay, if any, is
probably a few minutes. Of course depending on how long it takes to build
the ports it may take a while to finish, and may have been busy building
other ports already when you commit.

When it cannot get the binary, that may be because of license issues,
because the build failed on the buildslave, or because you are using
non-default variants (and probably other reasons too).
