I wonder if we should have a custom integration enabled like we do for setting the tags pending. It would send an email to the maintainer when a MR or an issue would be created. I don't expect Salsa to be aware of the Maintainer and Uploader fields of a package, so a custom integration would make sense to me. This change could be scripted globally and also added to the salsa-scripts for when you create a repo. Does that sound like a reasonable solution? Joseph
