Hello, +1!
I also noticed this, and asked about it on IRC in #debbugs right before this bug was reported: 16:24 < Ryan52> All BRs I've looked at today show: Maintainer for FOO is (unknown) 16:24 < Ryan52> Is this a known problem? If it's relevant, the pages say "Machine Name: buxtehude.debian.org" (not sure if the web host I have connected to makes any difference) 16:27 < Ryan52> Oh, I found one where it works, I think it depends on the package. #730833 is an example of one which does not work. 16:39 < BTS> Opened #730835 (grave) in bugs.debian.org by Francesco Poli \(wintermute\) <invernomuto@paranoi...> «the BTS seems to no longer know who are the maintainers of the packages!». http://bugs.debian.org/730835 16:44 < Ryan52> Heh, I'm not the only one. I also reproduced this with pages showing "Machine Name: beach.debian.org". I therefor conclude that it is not specific to the web host being used. The package where I previously saw it work no longer has a Maintainer shown, I guess maybe a data import process is going wrong right now?
