All- I'm wondering if it might make more sense to send the Jenkins build notifications to the notifications list, rather than the dev list.
I see two advantages: 1) The dev list is more "pure" in terms of humans-only, which can make it easier for developers to interact without feeling spammed. 2) Those who don't want to see any automated notifications can filter them out more easily. And one disadvantage: 1) Developers signed up to the dev list may not want to sign up for a second list to get notifications about build failures they caused with their commits. The disadvantage can be mitigated, I think, if Jenkins is smart enough to know who caused the commit that failed, and can be configured to send a notice back to that person directly, in addition to the notifications list. (Also, on a related note, I've attached the importable GMail filters that I use which you may find useful to organize your GMail. Feel free to use.) -- Christopher L Tubbs II http://gravatar.com/ctubbsii
