Coming back to where we started: keeping the Uploaders field reasonably up to date also means fewer "Remove from Uploaders" bugs from the MIA team. A little best-effort maintenance here may therefore save everyone some work later.
Hi all, message to the developpers of tools like lintian-brush and debputy: On my side I'd be happy to delegate this part of the management of the Uploaders field to these or other tools, with whatever heuristic you think is appropriate. https://salsa.debian.org/debian/routine-update already adds the person doing the upload to the Uploaders field if it is empty or missing, so having helper tools removing names without caring if becomes empty would be fine for me. I expect I am not the only one, therefore posting this on -devel.
