David has asked us to retire it, as he no longer works at IBM.

Did he ask in public or in private?

Please retire the buildbot. IBM AIX OSS team can provide one and onboard it if they wish.

Since the change removes the last AIX workers, I suggest removing also the factories: AIXBuild and AIXBuildWithXLC.

Merged, thanks. If later, someone wants to add again AIX workers, we can easily revert AIX factories. Also other AIX workers might need different configuration.

Yeah, thanks David for the AIX workers, they were very useful to test and debug issues specific to AIX!

It is in my plans to update the current AIX machines at OSU and then later request to add them again as AIX workers.
