Best way to capture user field values from a child record?

I'd like to be able to email all the task owners under a project if a project's status changes.

I'e tried using summary fields, a formula query and a pipeline and can't find an easy way to have a list-user field at the project level that summarizes the task owners.

np,
make a formula text field on the child table called [Task Owner (text format)] 

ToText([Task Owner userid field])

Then make a combined text summary of that field to get them up to the Project

Then use this formula.

var text value = ToText([Combined Text Task Owner (text format)]);


ToUserList(
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,1,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,2,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,3,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,4,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,5,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,6,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,7,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,8,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,9,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,10,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,11,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,12,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,13,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,14,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,15,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,16,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,17,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,18,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,19,";"))),
ToUser(Trim(Part($value,20,";"))))
