Are there others that can provide a Windows buildbot? It would probably be good to have two -- and a WinXP one would be good. How much work is it to set one up, and to maintain it? Maybe I can offer an XP VMWare image.

It has been a while since I set it up. Tim did so at about the same time and wrote down his steps to setup... but I can't find the reference to those instructions right now.

I've found maintenance to be low -- just have to have to start a cmd shell and run the buildbot slave command. However, that may be because the box on which it is running isn't one I use regularly, so I don't have to worry about accidentally killing the process, frequent reboots or anything like that.

I'll try to dig around and see what I can find for setup instructions.
