Frank,

Works for me :-)

Yes, I suppose.

OK.

Yes, you are right.



Jason,

If preparation of nightly builds is fully automated and it can be run by 
hand (build - pack - upload to FTP) then I can offer resources of my 
machine. I run number of Virtual Machines on my computer
so there is no problem for me to make & upload new builds
every day, by hand.
The only problem is that I can not leave my computer running 24/7,
at least not before I move to my new place in the mid of June.
