A binary cache, containing a [https://github.com/dezgeg/nixconfs/blob/master/packages.txt subset] of the [https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/tree/nixos-unstable nixos-unstable] channel, is hosted at http://nixos-arm.dezgeg.me/channel (signed with '''key''' <code>nixos-arm.dezgeg.me-1:xBaUKS3n17BZPKeyxL4JfbTqECsT+ysbDJz29kLFRW0=%</code>).
