People on this list are probably glad that we don't open a thread for
each one of our documentation tickets :)

I'm not in favor of completely getting rid of them. I think that even if
we use one of the solutions that you are proposing, we should still
notify the list when we feel that more than two people should have a
look at a branch.
For example, when doing non-trivial changes to the code or when writing
big chunks of documentation. I will at least continue doing that.
I know that this might be completely subjective but I believe it will
work and be better than do reviews only on Redmine. The point is to find
the best signal/noise ratio on the list.

Sounds good.
