I think the approved procedure for such a thing is just to write a PR for https://github.com/twisted-infra/braid. As you can see we do have some "canary" builders - particularly fedora 23 which just turned green quick make it supported before it breaks - on http://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/boxes-unsupported?branch=trunk&num_builds=10 but we have purged a lot of the old, useless ones nobody was paying attention to. So: yeah, go for it. If you'd like credentials so you can update the prod buildbot deployment, let me know ;) -glyph
