Sure, but we don't even know that today, since the buildslave is broken. At 
least I don't know about 42 issues.

And I hope you wouldn't require a commitment by me to fix all issues as a 
prerequisite for being allowed to contribute a buildslave;)

Well, I don't think so, and, FWIW, here is my motivation: help making 
Twisted/PyPy/FreeBSD a first class supported combo. It's my fav. combo. and we 
use that commercially. So I am serious I guess.

To support that commitment: I already contributed kqueue/FreeBSD both to 
Twisted and PyPy (for completeness, in both cases, there was old 
non-working/incomplete code there) and helped in general making FreeBSD an 
officially supported platform for Twisted (CPython). And I will contribute more 
code if time permits.

Anyway, I am looking forward to the 2.2 release, and after that will come again 
asking for buildbot credentials if thats fine ..
