Peter,

Anthill Pro keeps a history of all the builds for a particular project. 
  Essentially, that is what would be required in Anthill OS to implement 
this type of functionality.  Once the object model knows of the 
historical builds and whether they succeeded or failed, you can do with 
that pretty much anything you want -- you can display a chart of all 
builds, or a chart, etc.

Implementing this functionality would require a pretty big change to 
Anthill OS.
