I disagree about this point. IMHO the procedure described in <http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/bug-wranglers/> makes more sense: # When the file [i.e., metadata.xml] lists multiple entries, then you # assign the bug to the first maintainer, and CC the other # maintainer(s) and herd(s). > 2.

"<maintainer><email>${HERD_EMAIL}</email></maintainer>" Explicit maintainer elements should have precedence over implicit ones. Ulrich
