I guess from my POV the answer probably hinges on the reliability of the
test harness. If it has a very low false failure rate, then it'd be ok
to send it to this list. Conversely if there's a non-trivial false failure
rate it'd be better to have it go to an individual who filters it and just
forwards the real failures to the list.

An alternative idea would be for us to setup a new 'libvirt-testing'
mailing list, exclusively for spamming by CI systems, that people could
opt-in to subscribing to.

Daniel
