Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Hudson shutdown wait from hell

a new mailing list for hudson build issues?

how about

hudson-needs-rebooted-again@xxxxxxxxxxx

it could be processed by a script even, after 5 distinct messages from
different addresses it could trigger the restart itself and free up
the webmasters time!
