I apologize about today's traffic as it is entirely my fault. I created
the 'next' branch to start merging new packages and major changes even
if we've entered the -rc cycle for 2015.08. And the way I did it ended
up resending a notification e-mail for each commit of the 2015.08-rc1
cycle.

So this 1500 e-mail for today is really exceptional. Though I agree in
general that the volume of traffic on the list is quite high. If you
have suggestions to make it more reasonable, it would definitely be
interesting.

Thanks!

Thomas
