Nice to hear that someone is actually using this information.

May I ask why these notifications are directed to the mailing list
that is dedicated for development talks? Such a notification just
_looks_ irrelevant to some thread, it is not even a patchwork
notification or a buildbot warning that is sent as a reply to a patch.

It is a matter of balance. Everyone is happy to read these
notifications, but someone will not need them and will create an
automatic filtering rule. Or someone found these notifications useful,
but everyone else wonders why they received them.

Is it possible to reconfigure these notifications to send them
directly to your mailbox? Or maybe set up a dedicated mailing list? We
already have the mailing list for commit notifications. I am
subscribed and quite happy to be informed of development progress this
way - it saves me a lot of time and does not bother people who prefer
some other monitoring approach.
