Do we need a policy on whether or not to use Bcc here?
One argument for using Bcc is that it avoids replies from subscribers to the destination mailing lists from also being CC'd to patches@linaro.org. Can your analysis cope with patches@linaro.org receiving a whole thread, or do we need to be careful about this?
Use CC, not BCC.
There is no issue with people replying to patches@linaro.org; we will use the headers to ensure we're not double-counting, and having the whole thread actually helps us hint if the patches were upstreamed or not.
OK-- if you're confident that the analysis won't break, and that no bounces will come from patches@linaro, then I agree -- there's no other reason for the CC to be "secret"
