Two examples include all vcs import related notifications (via launchpad -> vcs-imports) and all bug notificaitons for the wadllib project (via launchpad -> launchpadlib-developers). I suspect that there will never be an instance where a notification is appropriate or desired to be delivered to everyone in ~launchpad. As such, my recommendation is to setup a new mailing list (most likely a private Canonical mailing list to avoid exposing any notifications that may be private) configured not to send bounces and set it as the contact address for the launchpad team. For most, this mailing list will just be a much appreciated blackhole for notifications. For those interested in *all* notifications, they can of course subscribe. For those who are only interested in a subset of the notifications (ex. vcs imports), one can instead join the respectful team and become a direct member. Cheers, -- Cody A.W.
