Proposed change to Bugzilla setup

[Ge van Geldorp]

Currently, the "Initial Owner" of bug reports is set based on the component
selected in the bug report. Most of the components still have Vizzini as the
initial owner. Since he left the project, that doesn't make much sense
anymore.
I'd like to change all initial owners to "[e-mail]", a new
mailing list. Subscribers to that list would then get notifications of new
bug submissions. This type of setup seems to work for a lot of open source
projects.
If there are no objections I'll create the list and switch Bugzilla on
Thursday.

Vizzini Left?!? I guess ROS needs a new kernel coordinator then.

I would subscribe. No need to search bugzilla for new bugs. Great!

Forgot to do this Thursday, but [e-mail] is now open for
subscription. Bugzilla setup changed as proposed.

hadn't guessed.
