Description

I think the bot should monitor Travis repos, and announce failures in gitter chat. In particular, this announcement is important to be cross-repo, so that, say a failure in manageiq/master is announced in the manageiq/ui room.

To avoid slamming the rooms, the bot should announced once on first detection of failure, then announce once that failure is back to green.

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing Travis repository monitoring and Gitter notification entry points, then define how cross-repository rooms map and verify that only the first failure and the return to green are announced.
