Re: Add list for monitoring Appdb

[Jeremy Newman]

I'm holding off on this patch until I get more comments on why we should
or shouldn't create yet another mailing list.

My personal opinion is that we don't need a mailing list for this. The
change emails can go straight to the app owners themselves, and possibly
to the appdb admins. I know I wouldn't care seeing update emails for
apps I don't maintain. Just my opinion.

I will create this list if there is enough interest in it.

Add list for monitoring Appdb

[Chris Morgan]

Maybe there should be an option for an admin to add themselves to both a 
global and a app specific list so when things change for an app an email is 
sent to all people on the global list and then all people on the app specific 
list.  This lets people opt-in if they want to get the emails.

Add list for monitoring Appdb

I'd be interested in reading this, but really, I'm all
for simply seeing the Appdb updated.  I understand you
guys are busy, but it's been about a month+, and I'm
still waiting on confirmation for my submitted app. ;)

Thanks!
