But you're right about the motivation: The point "It will reduce the time spent by developers trying to find how to contact upstream." should get more attention. Maybe it should even be split into two proposals: "New upstream tags to store maintenance upstream info" and "Add upstream tags to be able to store upstream version info" (or something like this, I'm sure you get the idea). -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
