The bots-2 problem, at least, should be fixed.  The solution is (and 
was) well-documented here: 
https://labsconsole.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Shared_storage#Troubleshooting

There are plans!  RIght now Ryan and I are mostly focused on providing 
the (virtual) hardware platform for labs, but we are in the process of 
interviewing candidates for this position:

http://hire.jobvite.com/Jobvite/Job.aspx?j=o7y3Wfwo&c=qSa9VfwQ

That person will be dedicated to designing and providing specific 
services for uses such as yours.

Thank you for bearing with us during our growing pains, and don't 
hesitate to ask specific questions here or in IRC.
