The amount of e-mails that are coming (with maintainers directly CCed) as a result of patches being merged to -stable is so overwhelming that I am not sure that people are making any productive use of it whatsoever. I am personally pretty much ignoring most of it, as (a) I wouldn't have time to do anything else otherwise (b) I don't have a sufficient motivation / time to invest effort into stable in the fist place. I feel it'd be beneficial to discuss this, and (depending on the outcome) perhaps make it opt-in (or opt-out) at least, with people/subsystems having means how to be excluded from all that ... ?
