      Currently when a build fails, Hudson just sends mail (if so configured) to those
      who committed changes to the build. In fact it ought to send mail to everyone
      who committed to any immediately preceding failed builds, i.e. accumulate
      recipients until the breakage is fixed. This is because the usual case is that a
      commit in the first broken build has not been fixed several builds later;
      occasionally someone else introduces an unrelated problem. Continuing to notify
      the original culprit keeps pressure on them, and helps other committers to see
      that they are not necessarily at fault.
