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.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the current bot code for existing announcement mechanisms, research Travis CI API for build status, design a deduplication strategy, and implement cross room announcements.
