How exciting!
We should definitely have a way to support this.
I'm not sure a webhook is right, We would need to maintain a
subscriber list, and it might get rather long.
Perhaps we should send updates to a mailing list. Email already has
retries, subscription management, and so on. We could use
debian-*-changes, but that might be controversial (and we'd need to
figure out *which* list to post to). Or we could have a new list.
