Re: Hudson notifications and build on snapshot dependency changes

[Gert Vanthienen <ge...@gmail.com>]

L.S.,

Nearly a month after proposing this, I finally managed to get this
done (kind of lost track of this): notifications are being sent to
commits@  for now.  If this results in a reasonable amount of
notification mails, we can still consider moving the notifications to
the (slightly more visible) dev@ list.

Regards,

Gert Vanthienen
