Vincent,

If you or someone else wants to start to set up such a thing, that would be awesome.  From my quick perusal, it would require access to a set of slave platforms on which builds can be done automatically.  That access implies some degree of trust -- I'm not sure how much, but I see no mention in the buildbot stuff of protection against malicious intent.  For this to benefit zlib, access to remote buildbot slaves would have to be volunteered.  Is this what is done for other uses of buildbot?  Or is it normally used with a bunch of local machines in a controlled environment?
