Actually, the yocto-autobuilder already contains buildbot so no need
for both.

If you read:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/yocto-autobuilder/tree/README-QUIC
KSTART

and probably some of the other READMEs and the documentation in the
docs directory of the yocto-autobuilder directory, it should get you
started in the right direction.

Feel free to ask questions if you need help.
