[vtk-developers] Experimental buildbot builds are distracting

[Ken Martin]

I can see the experimental buildbot group being useful for staging new
builbots to see if they would be green, or moving master buildbots down if
an OS upgrade breaks something and it has not been fixed yet (Trey would
have been a candidate for this) But having long running persistent
experimental failing buildbots seems of questionable value.  I do not
consider experimental buildbots in evaluating the quality of a topic.

What is the purpose of the experimental builds?. I have a merge request
that is pretty clean (except for a failing test, but that is another
complaint).
