I'd like to see a 'test' buildbot up and running that we could use as a staging area for trying out new changes before deploying to the production server. We could copy /OpenSource/Tools/BuildSlaveSupport/build.webkit.org-config to /OpenSource/Tools/BuildSlaveSupport/test.webkit.org-config, and have a test build master that updates and outputs logs somewhere readable (public_html?). Then, we could make sure any changes work on the test master before committing them to production.
