Mostly, it was a determination that Neal and I made at Pycon, about  
which bots we should "trust" to judge the health of the trees.  I  
don't think the current list needs to be set in stone, and in fact  
several of the "stable" bots have had simple svn or other non-tree  
related problems for a while.

As for the "unstable" ones, I personally rarely check them.
