Comment:

 I was wondering if I could try fixing this issue? I'm interested in
 attempting some low hanging fruit. I've spent a few hours mapping out the
 relevant pieces of buildbot functionality in my head and before I start
 I'd like if someone could verify my understanding and that I am headed in
 the right direction.[[BR]][[BR]]
 My understanding is that Botmaster is the current service parent of all
 slaves and parents. The most simple fix would be to create two
 MultiService objects (service children of Botmaster) within Botmaster and
 set slaves and builders to children of the separate objects.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 However, I have noticed the intentions to make the BuildSlaveManager the
 service manager instead. I am not sure if this is meant for a later patch
 or not; if so, I think I would need more information on the changes I need
 to make. Otherwise, it would be pretty straightforward.
