I think this is a great addition to Buildbot!  There are a number of
people using Buildbot for android-related tasks.

Personally, I don't know much about repo, android, or mobile
development[1], so I'd like to see a group of people (at least one,
preferably 2-4) who are willing do the care and feeding of the
repo-related parts of Buildbot.  I'd like to know that such a group
exists before I start merging this code.  I know Dustin spoke up on
the github pull request, too - would either or both of you be
interested in taking this on?

[1] Yes, this is probably a bad career position to be in at this point
in the field...
