We need to do a large number of generate-prep and development builds as part of finishing up our new approach and automation for Pixel device support. Can anyone get us cloud computing credits? Otherwise, we need to start paying for multiple new Hetzner dedicated servers.

We'll be making at least one more Android 15 QPR2 release soon to ship backports of important firmware and driver security patches released with Android 16. This wouldn't usually be required since we'd have Android 16 released to end users using the Alpha channel and soon Beta.
