May-be, I am wrong, but as it seems to seems me, in cases somebody orphans a package entirely, up to 8 mails (one per branch) are being send to commits@. In cases of perl-packages add up to 8 further mails. At least I have been swamped in such mails throughout today (some referring to Fedora 1-5) and meanwhile have set up a filter to dump all pkgdb mails. > ...but I definitely agree that there is too much mail being sent even if > it's only half that amount. > > The question is what to do about it? Not sending them to commits@ at all. Commits@ become what it once originally was: A list to take CVS commits on rpms only.
