Ah, now I found where I screwed up: I have my personal email as the email address but with a Team name. I have used
reportbug --realname="NeuroDebian Team" --email=t...@neuro.debian.net -b wnpp and because I did have REPORTBUGEMAIL env var set to my email, it took precedence over --email. Good to know... I will fix-up relevant ITPs to contain proper entry NeuroDebian Team <t...@neuro.debian.net> Meanwhile discussion on a generic topic "owner for ITP -- team vs individual": On Wed, 22 Dec 2010, Raphael Hertzog wrote: > > and then what to do if we have not decided yet what particular humanoid > > will accomplish the mission? > It doesn't matter much. You can always change the submitter afterwards. nah, then we should do it upon every commit to the repository while multiple people working on the packaging... > If you have no volunteer to do the work, it could be argued that you > should first file a RFP and change it into an ITP once you know who will > do the work. yes, we do have volunteers (more than 1) to do the work -- it is us, the team. It might end up being one specific person, or multiple developers working on it at the same time... it depends, our primary goal is to get job done. Overall, what specific problem (if there is any) would be solved by requesting to specify some other than team name/address for the package which is going to be team maintained? imho none Meanwhile more arguments why I consider team contact appropriate (and even preferable at times) for the Owner of an ITP, in contrast to a single, possibly arbitrarily chosen, developer from the team: * Team contacts are our preferable entry for the "Maintainer" field in the packaged package Many benefits of having team in the maintainer apply to having team in the owner of ITP: more eyes, aggregated qa. page etc * We have no strict requirement for the submitters of ITPs being a DD. it could be owned by an arbitrary (possibly fictional) person with arbitrarily contact email (possibly fake); so NeuroDebian Team could be treated as a single humanoid with an email t...@neuro.debian.net ;) or we could come up with a more specific one A.Humanoid <human...@neuro.debian.net> to be forwarded to team@ ;) -- =------------------------------------------------------------------= Keep in touch www.onerussian.com Yaroslav Halchenko www.ohloh.net/accounts/yarikoptic -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
