[ shrug... ] BZ sends me email too --- for the things *it* thinks I
should know about.
The basic point here is that these systems are designed on the
assumption that there is a small, easily identified set of people
who need-to-know about any given problem. We (Postgres) have done
well by *not* using that assumption, and I'm not eager to adopt a
tool that forces us to buy into that mindset.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
