Maybe we could do something like user-directories on a webserver, where
every dev could put his stuff as needed? E.g. users.macports.org/~cal
for me?

I'm not sure how easy it would be to re-use authentication data, though.
If all else fails, we could just define a common location in the /users
folder where SSH public keys could be put and a post-commit hook would
fetch them and verify they've been committed by said user?

Of course there nothing stopping anybody with a webserver to implement
this, either.

But maybe it's just simpler to get storage at some cloud artifact
storage like Homebrew does for their archives, iirc.
