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? Daniel ( 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) )
