And by default we could send notifications to the #llvm-build only from faster bots with shorter blame lists. That would discriminate heavier and slower bots, but it seems those get buried under noise anyway.<br></div><div><br></div><div>David has already said this, but I want to repeat. The bots report only state changes. If a bot is red, it does not report failures following the first one till it gets green again. If anyone sees otherwise, please let me know, so I could troubleshoot.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br></div><div>Galina</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 3, 2020 at 10:34 AM David Blaikie <<a href="mailto:dblaikie@gmail.com" target="_blank">dblaikie@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Fair enough - it is very noisy.<br><br>I'm surprised these aren't all producing corresponding emails, though (at least those only go to the people on the blame list - but that seemed to be the case Nico was citing - though the general "I'm not even to blame but this is adding a lot of noise to the channel/making it hard to have conversations" is a broad/broader problem).

Hopefully those configurations can be unified. I don't think it's any more appropriate to send IRC notifications than email notifications.
