I just see a problem in this model. Traffic will be really in high, and people
watching this list will lost interest soon, and it won't be useful.

For example, there is a commit-list which, if I'm not wrong, receives an email
with each commit done in git. Is somebody tracking down that list step by step
or its just used as a history?

Maybe just defining some guidelines would be enough to "teach" developers how
to deal with strings.
