I'd have to look at subscriptions.module first (don't turn out modules on drupal.org without a decent security review). That said, I'd love to have e-mail subscriptions in core -- even if it is a fairly naive implementation.
If we're going to go that route I'd rather see a general subscription framework (no, I'm not going to say "API" ;) in core. There are lots of other ways that a someone could be notified of subscriptions (i.e. Jabber/XMPP, etc). It'd be nice if things could tie in there. So a subscriptions framework would really just keep track of what nodes/ terms/etc are subscribed and offer a hook for implementations to do the notifying.
Code is gold? :P
Subscriptions already does RSS as well. So it's somewhat close. But yes....the mythical someone needs to stand up and 1) do a code review and 2) file issues that need changing and 3) do the issues with code -- Boris Mann
