I wasn't sure about -bugs vs -hackers either, but in this case I used the review form built into the commit-fest app, and the app is what sent the email. As far as I know I can't change its destination or its CC list, even if I had thought ahead to do so. I think the bug reporter should certainly be CCed when the bug is closed, I don't know about intermediate steps in the "sausage making" process. Something to think about for a bug-tracker we might implement in the future. I think most bugs are summarily handled by committers, so don't go through the commitfest process at all.
