As part of the objective of Outreachy is for participants to work in 
the open and conduct open code reviews and discussions, please ensure 
that xen-devel is added in future. I think we should mark emails related 
to this project with "Code-Review-Dashboard:" in the subject line, which 
means people who don't care can ignore the mails.

Also, reviewers, maintainers and committers expect to be CC'ed and will 
either ignore or just scan mails that only go to xen-devel@

Regards
Lars
