As a maintainer of a Nixpkgs derivation, I want to get automatically notified by email when a notification is due.

Implementation notes

Provide functions in the backend to email maintainers of a given package, if these maintainers are known in the database, we can apply in addition their notification preferences.

  • notify_maintainers_of_package(package)
  • notify_maintainers(security issue)

Reminding maintainers of their packages could be done by iterating over all packages with a status awaiting maintainers intervention and notifying them again.
