I'm not sure I'd see this as a great improvement. If the total volume increases and the amount of uninteresting mail remains fairly high, I'll keep skimming them very quickly or just marking them all as read. Most bugs that I've filed via the WHATWG review comment tool are editorial and I don't think the list needs to know about them. Assuming that most bugs are uninteresting, couldn't we manually CC public-html on the few bugs that need wider discussion? If that's not technically possible, then having no automatic bugmail and having someone who cares enough manually write an email saying "what do you think about this bug?" would still be better than what we current have, for me at least. -- Philip Jägenstedt Core Developer Opera Software
