Q) Why doesn't the EWS post a success message? I like positive re-

A) I'm worried about spamming bugs with too many happy status
messages. If we have N ports with EWS bots, we don't want to have N
happy status messages. Eric and I have some ideas for a more
passive
success indicator. Once things are running smoothly, we can share
some mocks with the list.
I particularly like not spamming bugzilla in case of successful
builds, and IMO the code-style bot should not post a message either
in
case of no errors.
I agree, but this behavior was specifically required by Maciej when we
brought the bot online.

I'd be happy to change it if that's what
folks would prefer. One possibility is to incorporate the status
bubbles directly into bugs.webkit.org directly instead of requiring
the extension. I find the status bubbles easier to use than hunting
for the success / failure message when reviewing a patch.
I think something like the status bubbles would be more useful than
the success comment, though I also find the success comment more
useful than nothing.
