Indeed.  I think emacs-devel <at> gnu.org is likely the better place (it's
bound to get someone's attention).

This kind of "obvious" address should ideally work, indeed.

This said, I'm not sufficiently familiar with the gnu.org mail system to
know how @elpa.gnu.org is handled, but before recommending such an
address we should make sure it works even when elpa.gnu.org is down
(like it is now :-( )
