I propose that we move the information on setting up a buildslave from the wiki to the devguide. The attached patch is my rewrite (hopefully an improvement) of the information from the wiki. Note that there are a couple of TBD pieces (setup on Windows, restart at boot on windows and mac). I'll be filling in the mac stuff as I set up the Intel ICC mac buildbot and figure out what all is missing from the docs.

R. David, this will be an excellent addition to the devguide. Great clarity in the text. I particularly like your discussion of what are buildbots and who provides and maintains them. It also encourages those interested in a particular os to consider maintaining a buildbot suitable for their needs. 
I can see this being helpful to those individuals on the core mentorship list looking for testing issues to resolve. Nicely done :)
I will do a more thorough grammar/style review later. I will defer to others on the technical review.

Note to myself to review issue 13124 before submitting my updated patch for review.

Here is an updated version of my buildslave patch, incorporating what I've learned in getting the Intel mac buildbot fully functional, and some additions from my review of the issue 13124 patch.
This is ready for final review and commit. Note that the windows stuff is 'TBD'; hopefully someone who has actually set up a Windows buildslave (Zach?) will fill in those sections, updating the information from http://wiki.python.org/moin/BuildbotOnWindows to modern reality. But I think we can commit this before making those additions, and deal with that in a separate patch.

This looks great. Two very minor typos. Overall, the patch renders nicely and can be merged. I agree that it is worth merging with or without windows instructions (which may be added later).

Thanks David!

Drat, I keep forgetting to put issue numbers in devguide commits :(.

Thanks for the review, Carol.
