We have a fairly simple python script that connects to the gerrit server via
ssh and listens to the event stream.

It contains the secret key we use for communicating with the CDash Web API,
so we are keeping it private. (In the future, we could scrub it and clean it
up for public consumption, but right now, it's not in a state to go public
today.)

No. We just have links to the builds that were kicked off by a build request
posted as a comment. See, for example, the comments by the "Kitware Robot"
user here:

  http://review.source.kitware.com/#change,2432

Which points to this CDash view of the builds that were initiated:
