Sure, from time to time the maintainer should check the pages if he
overlooked something (e.g. marked a mail as read that he still wanted to
work on and forogt), but it is a good thing that we don't need to check
various pages on a reguar bases. (Heck, I even wrote a script that mails
me when new weekly assignments from my university appear :-))

The question is: Is is something that enough people deem useful enough
to spend the time to implement it. :-)
