[R-sig-Debian] arm64 r-base backports on CRAN

[Johannes Ranke]

Hey Jeroen,

I was recently considering to do this, but did not get around to buy hardware or look for hosting on that architecture.

I just invested in a nice amd64 system, but just for building for CRAN I wont need too many arm64 cyles.

Any recommendations on where to look?

Cheers,

Johannes
