We're currently aiming for that, by generating OSC-compatible packaging
(currently debian, but could be extended for RPMs or arch) and upload to
the OpenSUSE build service. It looks promising, but what is really missing
IMO is testing. Since OSC allows for local package building as well as
remote ones, I want to try it out this way. It is going to be painful for a
while (much longer builds ...) but I don't see any other way.
