I'm looking for an alternative to the build notification mechanism and would like to send a custom email to the people who delivered changes to a particular build. Is it possible to have a list of emails of contributors available from an ant script, or possibly something else? Thanks.

Accepted answer
I do this for my builds.
You can use the generateChangeLog task from the build toolkit to generate a list of the changes. From that change log you can extract the user list. We use email address as the user ID, but if you don't do that you'd need some sort of mapping. marlies santos selected this answer as the correct answer
Comments Thanks, Jeff. This was very helpful.
I followed your suggestion and got a comma separated list of contributors' addresses by using this command
grep -Eo '<.+@.+.ibm.com>$' $1 | sort -u | sed 's/<//' | sed 's/>//' | tr '\n' ,
Also, is it possible to exclude changes from excluded components without having to post-process the changes file? There are several components in the stream but I exclude a few and would prefer for those changes not to be listed because they don't have an impact in the results since they are not run.
Thanks again
