[development] subscribe to a node

[Rob Barreca]

I've recently taken over maintaining the Notify module which does some 
basic notification of new nodes/comments. And, I've talked to the 
maintainer of "subscriptions" (with the 's') about merging these and 
doing a major code audit, so this is on my future todo list but will 
happen no time soon. I'd love to get rid of the cruft and have one solid 
subscriptions module to handle all this functionality.

So count me in to help a bit on this.
