Ok, Ok, I believe you ... uh, except you _just said_ it didn't always work. :)

No :-) I said "it doesn't always email the correct project" but I didn't say "it doesn't always work" - when it can't figure out the project, it emails me.

But, I think you are saying CDT _was_ receiving notices for this case I mentioned, that

No, CDT was not receiving emails. If it had been, the status on the web page would have said "Failed (cdt)".

1b) as far as I am concerned, you can notify everyone in the .sc files when there's a failure!

I chose not to do that for Ganymede (it may have been a poor decision, but hear me out) because for Europa people were getting too many build failure emails and were ignoring them. So for Ganymede, the build failures are only emailed to the detected projects.  Anyone who wants to see the whole stream of failures can monitor the "failed build rss feed".

3) I'd suggest that a build be done when ever a change is checked in ... instead of once every 24 hours ... this way we can sometimes detect 2, 3, or 4 errors within a day, instead of having to wait for 2, 3, or 4 days.

Do you have a script for doing that?
