I disagree here a bit. Some of the package I maintain are being maintained in a team on alioth. Most prominent teams here are pkg-wpa and pkg-multimedia. I leave the alioth mailing list in the maintainer field to indicate where the maintainers can be reached. While I understand your proposal, I'd like to see that we keep these packages as a corner case and leave the Maintainer fields. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- Ubuntu-motu mailing list Ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-motu
