No - the "current" branch is 3.5. The rationale for not creating
buildbots for them right away is that 3.4 just had a release, and
the next release might be a few month ahead, so enabling buildbots
four weeks from now might still be early enough.

I was actually unaware that there is a 3.2 configuration still;
repurposing that is then fine with me. However, it might be a little
bit more complicated, since the 3.2 configuration is not listed in

https://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/

so you'll have to create a bunch of proxy, alias, redirect and whatnot
configurations if you want to expose a fourth branch.
