Nice! If it's not much effort to get this running on GNOME infrastructure, I think it would be useful, and have it linked from the release reminder e-mails. What do the x/y numbers mean?

Hi, it would be nice, if anything like this will be implemented, to have the notifications on the opt-in bases. I understand the need for maintainers of tons of modules which do not receive any active development, but for me, whom has only few packages, would be the notification a simple spam and thus quite annoying thing. I'm fine the Friday notification about the following Monday release. I have also setup a calendar notifications about the releases. Just my opinion on the matter.

I think 1) would be useful because I have a load of modules which I am not sure if they need to follow the main GNOME release schedule. I had a nagging fear they should, but then nobody poked me about doing a release, so I forgot to check up further. As a result, a lot of my modules haven’t had releases following the schedule. (Sorry if I have been a total pain because of this.) Would such a list be useful for the release team, as a way of tracking who needs nagging? If so, then I hope producing it should not be too much of a drain on your time — if it is a drain, then you probably shouldn’t do it.

We can of course assist in producing tarballs, just ping us. I'm a bit surprised by 1) but we could certainly automatically produce a list of maintainers / modules/ time/commits since last release, if that could be useful.

Nope, that's already something we check before chasing people :) And while it's important to get stable releases out when the only changes are translation updates it is ok to "ignore" them for (early) development releases.

It's been some months we have those reminder emails sent to devel-announce-list. Maintainers, make sure you are subscribed. Maintainers (bis), please do try to respect the Monday 23:59 UTC deadline, it's really not fun to chase maintainers for days during release weeks.
