Where can I sign up for it? I don't see it on lists.suse.de.

Is it the same general format as the dist mails I get to hpj@xxxxxxx? I
get ~100 of those on some days, usually one per change per product per
architecture, e.g:

PS: Note that all occurrences of %{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}
are replaced by the verbatim string $VERSION-$RELEASE
to minimize useless output.

That aside, I'm not sure it's good process to assume you can drop
someone else's package if he fails to respond to a generated mail. For a
decision like that, it might be better to require the maintainer's
explicit consent, to make sure he's in the loop - and not on vacation or
otherwise missing mails.
