[Halld-offline] notification system for errors and warnings for nightly builds

[Mark M. Ito]

Folks,

We are going to go to a different distribution mechanism for the errors 
and warnings from the nightly build, effective immediately. Up to now, 
the log was sent to halld-offline at jlab.org on Mondays and Thursdays even 
though the build is indeed done nightly. Now we are going to use the new 
"simple_email_list" script. This was described at yesterday's offline 
software meeting. See below for subscription instructions.

We will send out the error messages every day!

If you DO NOT want to get these emails anymore do nothing. By default no 
one gets them (with exceptions noted below).

If you DO want to get them there are two ways to subscribe:

Method A

Write me an email and say that you want to subscribe.

Method B

1. Check out the directory "nightly_build" using the command:
svn checkout 
https://halldsvn.jlab.org/repos/trunk/scripts/simple_email_list/lists/nightly_build
2. In the that directory, edit the file "list.txt" adding your email 
address.
3. Check "list.txt" back in.

Right now list.txt looks like:

staylor at jlab.org
davidl at jlab.org
marki at jlab.org
zihlmann at jlab.org
pmatt at jlab.org
nsparks at jlab.org

So I've already subscribed some of you. Of course you can unsubscribe by 
using Method B above and making the appropriate edits. Note that you 
have to have a JLab account and be a member of the "halld" group to be 
able to do the Subversion checkout.

Let me know if there are questions.
