Ouch, for a moment I belived you changed your mind about moving to Java.
For those (like me) that didn't know:
"jenkins-ci" is the new name for "hudson".

What are the pros/cons for droppin Buildbot again ?
What does it take to donate build slaves ?

Btw, taking a look at the packages list available on my systems (from
debian lenny to ubuntu 10.04) to check availability status of
jenkings/hudson/buildbot packages, I've stumbled upon
http://bitten.edgewall.org/ which naturally integrates into trac. 
Does anyone have experience with it ?
("buildbot" and "bitten" were the only available packages, for the record).
