[Python-Dev] Changing SF tracker email preferences

[Guido van Rossum]

When a new bug or patch is posted to a SF tracker, an email gets sent
to python-bugs-list@python.org or patches@python.org.

But...  when anything is changed or added to those trackers, an email
is *also* sent to those lists.

I would like to receive the first kind of traffic (new tracker issues)
but not the second kind, except for those tracker issues in which I am
interested (which I can get by explicit turning on monitoring of those
issues, or by following up).

The SF tracker admin has an option to allow this: all I have to do is
uncheck the box that says "Send email on all changes".  I would really
like to do this.

Would anybody who is currently receiving bugs or patches traffic be
bothered if I made this change?
