No, I had a similar experience with the UI!

We've got automatic building here of x86 RPMs, and I suspect we're not
too far off being able to do something similar with ARM. We're using
Vagrant (using the vagrant-xenserver plugin) to set up build
environments and do the builds automatically. Once the
xenserver/buildroot packages can do the vagrant thing we should be able
to make some base boxes for the cubieboard and then it should be simple
to do the builds.

Compute resource isn't really our problem, we need more externally
visible storage.
