Android Builds have suddenly starting failing

This looks specific to your project, how big is the project now?

[Dave Dyer]

The size isn't changing.  About 22mb.  I posted this complaint after
getting 3 fails in a row, but the problem cleared up after a brief pause.

It would be good if there were a separate channel to complain about
apparent build server outages.
