E-mail is okay, but it is not synchronous.  A separate mailing list
seems fine, and I think everything going into browse.dgit.debian.org
could be posted to the same (new) list, using some standardized
machine-readable format.

Long-term, I think I would prefer something synchronous instead, but
this is really not an urgent request, mostly a question if there already
exists some method to get notifications of new tag2upload tags somehow.
