In case people missed it, there was a post on d-d-announce from Raphael
Hertzog describing the features of the tracker in this regard:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2018/07/msg00001.html

So, to summarize: it was indeed auto-created; it is usable as maintainer
address, and can even be used as a discussion list but messages aren't
archived.

IMO, it would be nice to use this as a maintainer address and have all
the "cruft" (notifications and such) messages going to it, while keeping
a proper mailing list (maybe asking for one @lists.debian.org) for
discussion.

Actually, even if we don't use the tracker, I think it would be nice to
separate the notifications from the discussion - at least it would ease
my own workflow ;)

Thoughts ?
