Not all package activity has an associated bugzilla entry, but maybe enough of it does? > Or, would it make more sense to find a way for anybody to follow > issues in packages, assuming bugzilla queries aren't enough? What about a <list> entry in metadata.xml that points people to the suggested mailing list for discussing a package? Bugzilla could automatically add the list to its CC list, and both devs and non-devs could join the list without adding a lot of email addresses to the tree.
