Hi Philip,

IIUC with this patch I'd be in Cc of all bugs? If that's the case I'm
not personally in favor of this, I score mails on bug-gnu-emacs also
based on me being in Cc or not.

I think the bug is that maintainers should be subscribed to
bug-gnu-emacs (otherwise I'm not sure how they can actually maintain).

Isn't a long list of people in Cc technically just another mailing list?

My 2cents, thanks!

  Andrea
