.. py:class:: ReporterBase
:class:`ReporterBase` is a base class used to implement various reporters.
It accepts a list of :ref:`report generators<Report-Generators>` which define what messages to issue on what events.
If generators decide that an event needs a report, then the sendMessages function is called.
The sendMessages function should be implemented by deriving classes.
