It saves the emailing and new commits to change openmaintainer to nomaintainer for mistakes. Furthermore, it makes removing a name from a maintainer list a simple task of search and replace, rather than figuring out if that name was the last one so nomaintainer can be added (and also checking that openmaintainer wasn't in that list). This change would be a small step in streamlining macports development. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list macports-dev@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
