What do you think would happen if that server went down? People can't get app updates, or install new ones. That is all. That is not critical.

They can then probably whip up a new hosted server to take over within a few days, at most. Big deal.

They are not hosting a critical service, and running on donations. They are doing everything right.

I concur, and given the amount of apps they build it makes sense to spend the money on a good build server to me, especially if it is someone with experience hosting trusted servers as mentioned as well as a contributor already. If people do not want to use it, the source code to build yourself is still available for the apps they supply.
