SuccessStories

There are Buildbots installed all over the world. If you've installed one, please add it to this list (or drop dustin at v.igoro.us a note and he'll add it), especially if it is publicly visible. The icons in the following table provide links to both the buildbot's Waterfall status page and each project's home page.

Buildbot			The "metabuildbot" is a buildbot which runs all of the buildbot's own unit tests.
Python			Python, the language that the Buildbot is written in, has recently set up its own Buildbot. Guido van Rossum mentioned it in his ​blog, and again in his keynote at PyCon2006.
WebKit			WebKit is an open source web browser engine that uses buildbot for continuous build and testing.
Mozilla			Mozilla uses Buildbot to drive all of it's continuous integration systems for Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, and other products. Our Buildbot farm consists of over 700 build and test slaves.
