# Maintainer
This is the maintainer of the bundle in the venerable `full name
<email>` format. Likely we should ROT13 encode this field, as the
`info.plist` will often be available over http.
I deliberately avoided the use of author, since many bundles
receive work from many contributors, and so if this was `author`,
the list would probably be monotonically increasing.
I think a bundle should only have one maintainer. True in practice
we have bundles maintained by several people, but the main purpose
of this field is to list someone the user can contact about the
bundle. If there are two maintainers, listing both will just
“confuse” the user as to who he should write, and there is only a
50% chance he will actually write the one responsible for the thing
he writes about.
Comments on this one? We could always make it an array, so we at
least have the option, but lets keep the name of the key in
singular form.
I'm kindof torn on this one.
Like the prototype javascript bundle.
I'm the maintainer of the syntaxes, but Harald Martin Ström is the
snippet maintainer.
I don't think there is an official maintainer for Javascript.
Experimental is also not really maintained.
Yeah, i think a single maintainer would work, if people fight about
who want to handle all the support for the bundle, we can set the
maintainer to Allan until they get over it. ;)
