> So I'd like to start a hopefully constructive discussion of the build
> farm's email practices. I've attached a picture of the onslaught my
> inbox just received. I'm fairly certain none of the builds failing is
> my fault. But it does lead me to some questions.

> 1) Are there settings for email that I haven't set to reduce the
> number of emails I get? Or am I automatically subscribed because I'm a
> maintainer?
> 2) Is there a way to condense the emails? If I got a single email
> telling me which packages I maintain failed to build, but this seems a
> bit much.
> 3) I've whined about this before, but is there some way we can make
> the error messages more legible? I'm sure for people familiar with the
> build farm, the errors may make sense, but as a maintainer, I have no
> idea what I'm supposed to do. If the answer is nothing, why am I
> getting email?
>
> I realize accomplishing some of these tasks will likely involve
> substantial amounts of work, but I feel it merits discussion
> nonetheless.
