Hi,

I was Cc'd on <handler.s.C.143024086325446.transcript@bugs.debian.org>,
the report of the transaction wherein Ivo De Decker added "stretch" tags
to all bugs currently tagged "sid". Not sure why, I tried to look at the
list of bugs in that mail, but it's just way too large. I tried going to
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;tag=sid;submitter=wouter%40debian.org
(since it's that mail address that's listed), but that didn't reveal
anything. Eventually, I figured out that it was due to packages of which
I am the maintainer and which were tagged "sid"; I hadn't realized, at
first, that I would get Cc'd for those, too (but in hindsight, it makes
sense).

It would be useful if the processing mail contained this information
somehow. Proposal: change the "Cc:" list so that it contains the
relevant bugs (and possibly also the role of the person in question in
relation to the bug) as a comment to the relevant email address; e.g.,

(maint #XXXXXX, #XXXXXX; submit #XXXXXX) foo@bar.com

or something along those lines.

Thanks,
