Yes:

1. You can connect the main ovs git repo to travis-ci. This will
   result in a email to both the author and commiter if a new
   commit to any branch breaks the build. It will keep emailing
   respectively nagging you for any additional commit with the
   build still broken.

2. We can set a notification email (new list?) to extend the
   notification to not only author/committer. We should not encode
   this into .travis.yml though because any commit to a fork would
   trigger such an email as well. There is a way to retrieve
   github repo settings in .travis.yml which we could use to avoid
   that, if you find this useful I can look into that.

3. Same as (2) but with an IRC channel as target.
