Based on a modified version of the scripts we used for the pkg-perl case I have generated the attached AUTHORS.txt.xz list. I will commit the two scripts needed when happy so they can be used for this step when we will be at that stage. For -guest accounts it tries to detect the email to use from https://alioth.debian.org/users/$author. Regards, Salvatore
