Current status - on hold
We need to make it easier to subscribe to issues/topics/areas of interest and then to be notified when something is going on that we might be interested in and willing/able to contribute to.
The dashboard of Drupal.org should be redesigned a little to make it easier to display and read these notifications
We should also make a much better use of email notifications than we currently do, and look at ways to automate Twitter/IRC notifications for those who want more immediate notice. We need to allow users to configure their notification preferences globally or by specific topic.

Comments
For everyone interested in
For everyone interested in this being implemented, vote on this idea here https://groups.drupal.org/node/312838 to get it into 2014 Drupal.org roadmap.
Improving Notifications Before 2015
Well, it got 19 votes and some supportive comments like "For documentation, this capability is desperately needed." from Lee Hunter.
It didn't get into the Roadmap that I know, but ultimately that doesn't mean that it can't be done in 2014. It just means that it isn't a priority for the DA in 2014.
There are a bunch of issues around notifications here:
