	Oh, that's not half bad.  I just cooked up a script that
converts Subversion's commit-email.pl emails into a call to 'buildbot
sendchange'.  I'm intending to run that out of the buildmaster user's
.forward.  It discovers the repo identifier alread, and I was going to
have it switch on the repo identifier to see what buildmaster to contact
(assuming one buildmaster per repository).  Instead, it could prepend to
the log message.

Thanks,
Joel
