Being on bugzilla does _not_ mean you'll receive a single email unless
someone _specifically_ CC's you.
(Except for relevant mailing lists and already specified maintainers who
are confirmed to manage certain kernel subsystems).
We've had over40 messages in this conversation and not a single person
has complained about SPAM ever coming from bugzilla.
With what I proposed that would _not_ change.
Weird to read this torrent of hatred and aggression towards purely
imaginary SPAM.
Anyways, Bugzilla is bad but it surely works. Let's have 100+ more
interchanges inventing something most users (for whom Bugzilla exists -
which people here keep forgetting all the time) will a have hard time
working with.
I repeat: Bugzilla exists for end users primarily.
Regards,
Artem
