Nobody is watching the repository, including me
I just checked the box to get pull request notifications.
A couple of days ago I got email from GitHub saying I'd been removed from the "Xymon Monitoring" organization. Is that the same thing? Should I be worried?

I had this enabled at the beginning but disabled it, when your AI
started acting every minute, since my mailbox was flooded.
I didn't find an option to only watch for newly created issues or PRs
(in contrast to watching every communication/update/push).
So now I have to manually look for new PRs/issues and subscribe those,
that I want to follow.
Do you know a better (custom) watch setup? If I subscribe on "issues"
or "pull requests", I get a mail for every update in all issues/PRs
and this are that many if the AI is actively working, that I delete
the mails unread, which isn't better than not subscribing...
Maybe I should try to subscribe issues again...
