This is getting really silly and idiotic.
It seems that people just decide to start stuffing random build reports onto this mailing list without considering how it looks to those who are subscribed to the list.
In this case, the "people" is me.

These kernelci.org bot reports are something that's started in the last couple of days. From what I can see, there are two bots:
From: bot@kernelci.org From: "kernelci.org bot" bot@kernelci.org
What's the difference?
Nothing. Its just a single bot, the latter just has a fixed up email address.
I've seen a hint in its output that it could be consolidating Kevin's and Olof's builds - is that true? Does that mean I can delete and in future /dev/null all of Kevin's/Olof's build and boot reports and just look at kernelci.org reports instead?
It's replaced mine (I've already stopped sending my emails) and adds a few other board farms into the mix, but not yet Olof's.
Explanation of what's going on goes a long way to helping the recipients understanding.
Yes. I've been meaning to announce and explain the change in more detail, but am currently at a conference and haven't taken the time to do so properly. I'll follow up with a more formal announce soon.
