I've been thinking about the same, but I'm not convinced it'd be a good
idea to have them end up on the web interface: it can easily clutter the
display (people are used to it being more or less an upload history).
Other opinions on this are welcome.
For the mails getting to the PTS email subscribes: sure. There isn't yet
a category for it though, I'd be inclined to file it under katie-other,
or alternatively, to review the categories.
Please just send the mails to package_katie-other@packages.qa.debian.org,
and they'll end up to pts subscribers who're subscribed to katie-other
(default: on). The X-PTS-Package anti-spam protection is only for
unclassified mail ending up in the PTS. When (if) categories are later
revised, we'll let you know (or re-route the mail ourselves).
