I find
http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/current/manual/concepts.html
hard to grok, partly because it starts at 'source stamps', plows
through version control systems and changes in crazy detail, and
only introduces things that show up in master.cfg way later.
Would it make sense to segregate that page into
"stuff that shows up in config files" and everything else,
and explain the former first?
Maybe a picture would help, too.
I hate UML. Really. I've drawn one UML diagram in my life
that I liked, and I did that one in ASCII art.
But I suspect that a UML-ish diagram showing the relationship
between buildbot configuration classes might help new users
come up the curve faster.
Or is there one I missed somewhere?
