I am going to speak to Stephen Hines about the fate of these bots next 
week.  I'll post an update here after that. At the moment, it seems 
likely that there will be some kind of a maintained linux bot soon, and 
it seems _un_likely that there will be people with enough spare time to 
maintain the android test bots *in their present form*.

Sorry for all the confusion, and please do report when things are not 
working for you,
