Hello,
a while ago I set up a BSD buildbot for tor[1]. It's actually not just for BSDs, but also for other systems, such as Solaris. I wanted to make it easier to notice when something breaks on non-popular systems, not actively used by the developers.
There also is reporting through an IRC bot and I wanted to ask if it would be interesting to have it report there. Currently it just lurks in there and lacks the permission to report build failures. So it would be great if the user 'bsdbuildbot' could get those permissions.
I was wondering whether this is something that developers are interested in and if so what kind of reporting they'd like to have. Currently (if it would be allowed to) it would report individual build failures and success, but of course if that's too noisy could also change to just notify when this changes.
Thanks to weasel there also is a FreeBSD builder for Jenkins. However that's only FreeBSD for now. The buildbot already has some other operating systems as build slaves and it's rather simple to set it up.

I apologize. I copied this post, because I wasn't subscribed to tor-dev when I originally sent this email and forgot about the subject line. Here it is now.
Hoping that this email makes it easier for people reading or searching this mailing list.
Sorry!
