I think you accidentally confuse things. commit-mails were always send to commits list. Warren proposed to have a separate list for the "Bugzilla-Spam" for reviews. That was accepted by FESCo some months ago and the list is "fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx". > This decisions of yours has caused fedora-commit list to degrade to a > list-archive feed, apparently not being read.

I'd say it won't make much of a difference. People will set up a filter to /dev/null to get rid of it if they don't want it (I know some that did).

Write a proposal, send it to fedora-extras-list for comments. If FESCo and most people on the list agree we'll go for it.
