Re: Pull Request mails for php-src will be going to git-pulls@

While I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment of getting people to pay attention to PRs, I don't think that filling this list with yet more crud is the way to do it, not least because of the number of people who read this list and don't have to power to do anything about them. I'd rather see some method of sending these only to people (for ex.) with src karma, but doing this automatically (sending them to those users' @php.net addresses might be an idea?). I'd support some kind of reminder after, say, a month of inactivity being sent to this list though.
