Yes, I contacted Galina in the past about this (and other flakey bots
over the years).
Sorry, I don't think what David did is unreasonable. I understand
losing the history is inconvenient, but it's also not ideal sending
mails with spurious failures. The bot failed fairly frequently for me,
to a point where when I've seen `ppc64-lnt` as subject in my mail I
didn't even bother clicking on the link contained in the mail.
To the best of my knowledge this is the only bot in this state, FWIW.
