Thanks Stefan for the quick response and helpful clarifying!! I just went 
asleep again. :)

>> The jobs are configured that only build failures trigger a mail.
I thought the current criteria looks reasonable. I just realized, the building 
is daily, when it's failed, there will be a mail to notify. When the building 
failure is fixed and the building on the next day passes, there will also be a 
mail to notify "back to normal". So no change is needed and your consideration 
is reasonable, this is great.

I'm glad we can keep build-tool module since it can be fixed for the release. 
When the project becomes big, there may be complicated things to put in the 
separate module.

>>When do you plan to do the next release? 
No concrete plan yet. I may have some spare time, resume some related 
discussions and do some work in this week for the release. After laying out 
some basic structures and codes for kadmin-remote, contributors like Yan could 
work on it in the branch separately. So in my side, Jiajia and I can do the 
required changes for the release on trunk. I hope it won't be too much but the 
time is also limited, considering there is going to be a long Spring Festival 
holiday in the beginning of next month in PRC China.

Thanks thanks for the taking!

Regards,
Kai

We didn't receive anything because the build is successful, see [1] and [2]. 
The jobs are configured that only build failures trigger a mail. I think that 
makes sense to not flood our inboxes. Or do you want to receive a mail on every 
build?

The issue I described doesn't apply to the snapshot build on Jenkins but only 
when creating a release (I think). I don't think it's complicated to handle, 
but may need a bit of trial-and-error. When do you plan to do the next release? 
Then I'll try to help figuring out the right procedure.

Kind Regards,
Stefan
