Yes, we can integrate the subversion master with the ASF buildbot master -
each project has its own config file as an extension to the main master.cfg
which doesn’t need touching. Those project config files are in our infra svn
and accessible currently only by those with infra karma, but I will be
opening up those configs soon so each project has access to tweak its own
project config file for buildbot.

Your current slaves can be reconfigured to use the ASF Buildbot master and
we can add new ones as necessary. Anyone wanting to re-purpose their slave
machine can do so now or at any time in the future and we will replace it
with an ASF hosted slave, just let me know.

As for monopolising, no problem, as mentioned in another post, I think it
best if we create slaves with subversion in mind, and only then share those
with project builds that are compatible or wont interfere.

Cheers
