Commit hooks is a frequently discussed topic but as long as the
commit mailing list exists - I know what to do on Salsa. :-)

That's perfectly fine.  Do you think there should be a separate team
for the flyers or should we just move it under group debian.  As far
as I can see we are talking about a single repositry so for my naive
outsider perspective debian group would be fine but if you want me
to create a separate team I'll do so and would propose

   Group:  Debian Flyers team
   Dir:    flyers-team

(the '-team' extension would be mandatory)

Very sensible. :-)  I'll drop debian-events-eu in my next response.  I
was just posting there since this was the channel where I learned about
flyers.

Mailing list owners usually are asked whether they want get their lists
moved to some different host.  In case nobody has just answered this
question with "yes" I could search for the announcement (some weeks
ago on debian-devel or so).

Kind regards
