I think registering with Bugzilla is a good way to keep track of the various 
bugs and their progress.  The amount of e-mail you get isn't that onerous, 
and it's quite often helpful to get background on the bug when any update 
comes through.

What I miss is notice of new public drafts etc.  I think that a simple 
e-mail to xmlschema-dev when a new public draft is issued would be 
sufficient.  If that's hard to do, maybe someone can setup something to 
routinely scrape http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema11-1/ and see whether the 
date of the draft has change?
