Then we need such a system:
. A new button on the manual pages at the notes eg.
"Subscribe to this page".
. Pressing this button, and then giving your CVS
user name and password, you are added to a list of
people who are responsible for that page.
. From that time, you get all the notes
posted/rejected/approved there to your mailbox
(mail()-ing from PHP and not a mailing list).
. Not only you, but everybody with CVS account can
manage that page, but you are (one of) the dedicated
person(s) to manage that page.
. We need an "Unsibscribe from this page" to be correct :)
IMHO this system should work. Although it will boom up
the separate outgoing mails from php.net.
But because this admin system is only accessible from
the main site, we can store those "subscriptions" in
mysql. The admin system will only be accessible from
the main site I assume, even if the notes are mirrored.
