I was under the impression that there wasn't consensus about this, that in fact it is disagreement on this point that has caused this to not be scheduled yet. By that I mean, a lot of people say kill the notifications about duplicates and then some say there is some value in them and they want it (Martin's example of the person who gets everything in email and needs the record applies here). I thought the correct way to fix this is to add state to the bug subscription and allow people to configure their subscription, i.e. send me status changes but nothing else, or send me status and summary/description edits, or send me everything. This is more work than just turning off a notification, and will not likely be scheduled for at least the next couple months. If I've misunderstood the history here, and there is consensus that dupe notifications should die, then the bugs team can get this scheduled. Sorry that I haven't updated the bug yet with this type of response. I'll wait until we reach a conclusion here and then update the bug.
