[Buildbot-devel] Adding 'committer' to InterestedUsers

I'm struggling with the following: In a project, one person is regularly
syncing changes from one project into another (using git). This person
obviously is shown as 'committer', while the people who wrote the code
are shown as 'author' of the changes. Now I'd like to notify *both* when
one of those commits break the build.

I'm using the buildbot.py post-merge script for git; in this script, the
'author' is used as the person responsible for the change and inserted
into 'who'. Is it possible to also add the committer, so that he is also
notified through the MailNotifier when using sendToInterestedUsers=True,
or is Buildbot actually fixed to exactly *one* person responsible for a
code change?
