Is there any sort of build_ok/test_ok matrix for "$svn_rev x

Well this is exactly the sort of problem buildbot is supposed to handle:
- someone sets up a central buildmaster which watches the SVN repo
and sends out change notices to the appropriate build slaves
(maybe some slaves only get changes once a day, others get every
commit, etc.)
- many people set up build slaves, on different platforms
- the buildmaster shows the results from all slaves on a web page,
and perhaps also on an IRC channel, email list, etc.
