Description
Currently, nix.dev pages include a field for adding an email address to receive notifications of updated or newly-published tutorials, which posts the form to a cachix endpoint.
To avoid any appearance of/potential for impropriety, it would be ideal to migrate these email notifications to official NixOS infrastructure. Do we have the capacity to support something like this?
