[Nut-upsdev] Build failure emails from Buildbot?

All,

how do you feel about the idea of enabling build failure notification
emails from Buildbot?

There are a couple of options.

We could have it just email the person who committed the change(s)
that broke the build, and/or we could email nut-commits.

For the first option, it would go to your alioth.debian.org alias for
simplicity. Not sure if the second option makes as much sense for NUT
because of the granularity of the timers that trigger builds. By the
time that someone else notices the broken build, the original
developer would have most likely fixed things.

The master server is running an older version of Buildbot, but we
might be able to limit the emails to just be "edge-triggered" - i.e.,
only send an email on the first failure until the build has been
fixed.

Thoughts?
