I'd think this could be done with a change to the buildbot contributed
GerritScheduler (or maybe even just a "change filter" to the scheduler).

Unfortunately, I've not been able to actually locate the code for the
GerritScheduler, which I believe is currently being used.  The information on
wiki.openafs.org seems to be out of date:

Jason, Is this code available somewhere?

Thanks,
Mike
