FYI: OSGeo is running a Drone CI instance [1], which is pointed at
Gitea [2] (on which QGIS has a mirror [3])

[1] https://dronie.osgeo.org
[2] https://git.osgeo.org/gitea
[3] https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/qgis/QGIS

PostGIS and GEOS are (in addition to use the OSGeo Dronie instance)
also using an public outside-hosted instance which is instead pointed
at Github (on which PostGIS and GEOS have a mirror):

  https://cloud.drone.io/

Getting some slave (agents, in Drone terms) machines to power up
the OSGeo drone CI service would be very useful.
