Add list for monitoring Appdb

[Tony Lambregts]

Quoting Chris Morgan 

I was intending to submitt a patch to allow each user to turn on emails. By 
default no one would recieve emails. If administrators turn on the switch then 
they would recieve emails from any app that changed. For application Owners/
Maintainers, they would recieve emails when something changed for thier app. 

The idea for a mailing list archive is so we have a record of what was changed
the same way that we have for bugzilla. Mostly it is a safegaurd for when we 
open up the DB to individual app Owners/maintainers.
