I restricted it explicitly in the sending script to those I thought might be 
interested in the series, as LKML (and/or gmail) would occasionally reject a mail 
based on too many Cc: entries...

Note that the tip-bot notification would still have Cc:-ed everyone mentioned in 
the Cc: lists, so had I screwed up the patch you'd still have been informed and 
you'd have the opportunity to embarrass me! :-)
