I already receive all bug mail for all the products I maintain, or help
maintain, or I am interested with. all maintainers usually do receive the
same email. I suspect it's not the amount of emails going around -
including the ones on this mailing list - that is the problem, here. I also
suspect that if there's a problem about maintainer overload, shoving more
mail in my direction is not going to solve it.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
