--------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is Recipients any different from Subject or Content. This is an extremely important feature to have in a large Jenkins installation with a lot of projects. Having to set the recipients in each project is both tedious and error prone.
How can using an ENV variable cause less issues than a separate configuration parameter?
If you are serious about removing this feature, then five things need to happen ASAP:
1. Remove the "Global Recipient List" documentation from the Wiki page
2. Document in a very prominent way in the changelog on the Wiki page that this feature has been removed
3. Document on the Wiki page how to convert from using "Default Recipients" to using an ENV
4. Remove the "Default Recipients" input field in the Manage Jenkins user interface
5. Release a new version of the plugin, which include these fixes
Is there anything we can do to make you change your mind about this, to help creating patches or to help with testing?
