Yes, that is the main problem I see with this (otherwise I'm all for it). If there is an email list that automatically contains everyone with push-access, emails could easily be sent there. I wouldn't want to have to maintain that email list, tough. > Who is the main responsible for isatest anyway?

They do ;-) I still feel mildly responsible for isatest, but would be more than happy to pass this on to somebody with more time and more close in time(zone) and and space to where it actually runs.
