What happen with HaikuPorts repos for old Beta releases?

I suppose, it would be fine to just preserve the state of old releases and don’t update that (since you don’t need to maintain these, let them rot in a quite, while working on the latest thing) after new release is done. Or do kill the old build once new rerelase is finally released. Just to give people a time to be ready.

I don’t suppose there’s any chance you could cache these somehow, and save us bandwidth?

A good note, I would like to build my own image for the CI where everything necessary is already preinstalled, ye. Actually this is a problem for both of us: your bandwidth, and my stability: sometimes thirdparty (relative to me) servers often fails or refuse connections and this of course breaks the build. Even when packages are pulled my own servers, the connection also might fail in a random moment. For now I disabled auto-builds completely just because they are failing due to described problem (the thing will be built manually when I directly trigger the build by myself).

For the case of Linux builds I made a pile of my own Docker containers where I pre-installed everything the necessary, otherwise PPA is a big lover to fail.
