Oh man, that sounds awesome! This may not be necessary, but I had an idea today about having other, remote machines be able to participate in the build farm. A remote tester could set up a daemon on their own machine that would perform the same tests that are in your build farm. Even if those remote testers end up testing the same configurations as the build farm machines, it couldn't hurt to have more data, right? :)
