The hardware is donated by Linaro and the first cloud is currently located in
China. As for details of hardware, I recently asked hrw in #openstack-infra and
this was his reply:

  hrw | pabelanger: misc aarch64 servers with 32+GB of ram and some GB/TB of storage. different vendors. That's probably the closest to what I can say
  hrw | pabelanger: some machines may be under NDA, some never reached mass market, some are mass market available, some are no longer mass market available.

As for downstream testing, are you looking for arm64 hardware or hoping to use
the Linaro clouds for the testing.
