Leap 15 maintenance is working as usual.

Leap 16.0 Nonfree was wiped and rebuilt. There is a small chance that 
there would be some sha256 checksum complains since, it was rebuilt with 
same versions.

We are starting to accept the first pull requests, the Leap 16 
maintaince process is starting

     - Changes to the sync done, a new build is currently syncing
- Triggered a new build of Grub2-bls
