Could I write a little monitor at my end that asks every hour if my buildbots can be seen?
AFAIK maintainers already get an email if the buildbot vanishes long enough. I am more interested in getting an email when my buildbot is consistently red because somebody committed something it doesn't like two months ago...
I think they are supposed to, but I've never gotten one, not even when my gentoo buildbots suffered a hardware failure.
As far as I remember it's a relaying problem on the SMTP server. Perhaps Benjamin can confirm.
That said, there has never as far as I know been an active hook to email the maintainer when the buildbot is red. I don't know if buildbot supports that or not, so that would be the first thing to check.
I don't know if it would support e-mailing the maintainer rather than whoever committed the last changes. Besides, I'm afraid our test suite isn't stable enough for such e-mail notifications to be bearable... Regards Antoine.
