two ideas that might or might not be good ideas but are worth discussing
early :

* try to automatically build the new version to see if it is an "easy
bump" or a "hard bump" and document the result

* ping the last person(s) that touch the package (git has facilities to
find them, I think it's called git-contribute) when a new version is
available


both have good and bad sides, thus worth discussing...
