The ASF-hosted buildbot can report on IRC (to a channel or in privmsg) the 
status of builds.  There was disagreement today on #svn-dev whether it's 
desired.  What do people think of having the bot notify on IRC

(a) after every failed build?
(b) on the first failed build after a series of successful builds?
(c) on the first successful build after a series of failed builds?

If you want to test this:

/msg subversion-bot help notify 
/msg subversion-bot notify on successToFailure failureToSuccess

This is the output of the former command:
<subversion-bot> Usage: notify on|off|list [<EVENT>] ... - Notify me about 
build events.  event should be one or more of: 'started', 'finished', 
'failure', 'success', 'exception' or 'xToY' (where x and Y are one of success, 
warnings, failure, exception, but Y is capitalized)
)
