According to ogra this can be solved by adding your team to the bugcontrol
team. There's a policy in place that allows teams to be added to the
bugsquad one, if they're upstreams. Ogra, please enlighten us. :)

I'm the only person subscribed to the ~touch-packages team and I get ALL
EMAILS (it's a lot!). Maybe check the unity8 team email's settings to see
if you are set to receive emails or if that's disabled for you (AFAIK being
subscribed != receiving emails).

This I'll have to check, I don't know why is that.

I believe that being added to the bugsquad team will only give you
permissions to triage Ubuntu bugs. Not sure if that's a problem for our
upstreams, is it?
