Koji suggestion: making build logs much more accessible.

Hi,

I noticed something I think is a bit of a feature regression with koji
compared to plague.

I maintain the sunifdef package, and as part of my communication with
the upstream developer I often pointed him the the location of build
logs for each package update. The upstream developer has in the past
found this valuable as he doesn't have access to as many platforms for
testing as the Fedora build farm has. Since the package contains a
test suite, building packages for fedora actually serves as a really
useful test for regressions across platforms.

Now, with plague, I'd recieve an email with a single URL to point the
developer to for buildlogs across all platforms.

With Koji I get a massively long email with lots of very useful
detail. But In order to point the developer to build logs, I have to
send a heap of URLs (or just forward the email).

Would it be possible to rationalize all this a bit to provide a single
URL and a sensible archiving hierarchy for the logs?

Cheers,
Jonathan.
