So, from your point of view, what would be a good balance between information
overflow and keeping the (valuable) comments on submitted patches? So what
should be the 'default forced notification' to the list?

Something like:
- a short dialy digest of changes to keep reviewers in the loop
- _one_ mail once a change goes in with all the comments/revisions and
  back-and-forth for this change in context in it

or something completely different? We might get rid of the first (or only send
it if there are changes untouched for more than a day) later or never do the
second or tweak all of that, but for now we need a sensible start ;)

Best,

Bjoern
