Good point.  Buildbot does support this with change "categories".

Right again.  I hadn't understood the meaning from the phrase.

Only insofar as the waterfall page will refresh every N seconds.  I
interpreted "self updating" to mean AJAX.  Perhaps I was being too
conservative?

Wikispam fixed.  Most of our wiki pages are spamful, and I don't know
of a good way to fix that.  Hopefully we can filter it out when we
move to the linode slice.  Let's call this planned, because I know
that there are some folks working on it.

Ah -- I didn't see that.  Thanks again!
