Currently Dak and debbugs mail directly the Maintainer and send a copy to
the PTS. Other services mail pkg@packages.d.o and this one also mails the
Maintainer and send a copy the PTS.

You ask to modify the PTS to mail the Uploaders and I respond that it's
not a wise choice because nobody can disable the mails sent directly to
the maintainer.

If we can get the Dak and debbugs to mail only the PTS, then we can code
the PTS to auto-subscribe either the Maintainer or all the Uploaders (or both)
and leave the choice to each team (or each member) to override the default
configuration.

Cheers,
