I don't really want to monitor FESCo activity every day. If there was
meeting announced, there was announced what is going to be discussed, so
it was enough to check once per week.

Sadly. But hopefully they were not that important.

Notification about new issues could be enough.

Although still, the FESCo meeting agenda used to be place, where it was
obvious, that something probably happened with the ticket and it needs
FESCo (and possibly my) attention. The notification of new issues would
not replace the convenience FESCO meeting agenda, but better than nothing.
