Well, maybe I'm just being dense, but in the most recent two threads you
started on this topic, you mention buildbot, and I saw a lot of buildbot
traffic come into my mailbox.  So apologies if I haven't followed your
emails in detail, but I did not see any prior mention of not needing
buildbot and could not find your 3-step workflow in previous emails.

I've been trying to figure out the advantage of using builds.a.o vs
buildbot.  It sounds like the key point is that we can publish without
having to go through the web interface.  That sounds like a good deal to
me.  Let's see what others think.

So assuming others are in favor, what are the remaining steps?  Do we want
to exactly reproduce the existing site?  Do we need to be concerned about
the "insecure content" errors/warnings?  Nick K was working on a revamp of
our website.  I wonder how that work will be impacted.
