 This is via using an even more simplified version of the example from the
 docs that does not use any rendering or Interpolate :

 {{{
 from buildbot.status.github import GitHubStatus
 gs = GitHubStatus(token='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
                          repoOwner='foo',
                          repoName='fw-versions')

 c['status'] = [ gs ]
 }}}
