Mantis-wise this requires a dummy account being assigned to every
project. It's easy for me to do this once, then Phil would need to add
this to his "add a new Mantis project" routine / script. When Ihsan has
the mailing list ready i can go ahead with this.

This is already the case. Might have stressed the new bug notification
too much.

Again that requires a Mantis dummy account as well as someone who
manages the list of who is real active. Is posting on maintainers@ a
sufficient criteria to label someone real active in terms of bug handling?

For new bugs left unassigned i could have a cronjob fire a reminder
after a certain waiting period.
