Remember that some do this legitimately. If the herd is, for example, "portage" but the email/bugzilla address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] then I think it is a good idea to leave the maintainer tag alone. Remember that this is an example and isn't what is actually in the tree. I just used it as a simple example. The point is that in cases where the herd name doesn't equal the email address used for that herd, the maintainer tag should probably be filled in with the proper email address. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation
