Also, note that in the case of these (release monitoring and the-new-hotness) you can adjust them on a per package basis in pkgdb. Look on the side under "Monitoring" and you can set it to 'No monitoring", "bugs and builds" or "bugs only". > > That's not helpful, though. > > The email basically says "Something happened, but you asked not to be > notified about it, so don't worry I won't tell you". > > Why even send that email in the first place? > > Anyone who opted out of the release monitoring notifications (note: I > didn't opt out, I actually find it great) doesn't want any > notification, let alone one that says "I won't notify you". > > The default setting for notifications really ought to be changed here. I agree. ;) Took me a bit to find the existing bug here: https://github.com/fedora-infra/fmn/issues/88 So possibly options IMHO: * Leave the fedmsg here alone, but modify all users + default profile to not include it. That way there's still messages if someone wanted to get 'hotness messages where the maintainers don't have it enabled' but everyone else could ignore it. * Just make hotness not generate this message anymore at all. * something else. Anyhow, please do add ideas to the upstream bug... kevin
