The full maintainer field currently looks like: Debian multimedia packages maintainers <pkg-multimedia-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> which is a bit long. What about trimming it to Debian Multimedia Maintainers <pkg-multimedia-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> similarly to other projects like pkg-gnome: Debian GNOME Maintainers <pkg-gnome-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> ? RT> * discussion happens on that list as well Ok.

Yeah, sad to have to say goodbye to Debian Multimedia (the Debian one), I feel that name was quite easy and catchy. Anyway the important thing to me is to get a well maintained package set. Ciao!
