I've deployed an update to calm which makes a few small improvements to the
way cygwin-pkg-maint is handled:
* Lines starting with a '#' are now ignored as a comment
* There's now a simple facility for grouping packages:
Define a group with a line starting with '@', e.g.:
@upstream_project Maintainer1/Maintainer2
Then @upstream_project can used in a package's maintainer list, as a
reference to that list of maintainers.
That's a great change. Thanks!
Would adding glob patterns help, too? Kind of like
aspell
aspell-*
Well, maybe.
That's a more complex change, as the code just does a simple lookup by
source package name at the moment.
It would also introduce the possibility for ambiguity. e.g. What is the
following intended to mean?
aspell-* Aye Person
aspell-gibberish Anne Other
