Re: Bug#12856: bug system shouldn't send 200Kb-mails to maintainers

At least, the following could be done:

[ "Proposal:" ]

Duplicate the current debian-bugs-dist list to another one, for example,
debian-bugs-weekly (i.e. create another list with the same starting
subscriber list).

Next, post the weekly summaries in the debian-bugs-weekly list, instead of
the usual debian-bugs-dist.

Now every developer would be free to unsubscribe from debian-bugs-weekly
and *not* from debian-bugs-dist, and we would save a lot of bandwidth.

Later, if enough people get unsubscribed from debian-bugs-weekly, we could
consider to remove that list and encourage the use of

index maint <maintainer>

[ BTW: This works great! I have already put it in the crontab file in my 
University's account ].
