+</I>&gt;<i> At the moment we have 1to1 relationship in all tools between maintainer
+</I>&gt;<i> and package. But for some packages we have more than one people willing
+</I>&gt;<i> to work on that package. Besides, for some critical package it may be
+</I>&gt;<i> useful having more than one person responsible for it.
+</I>&gt;<i> Also someone might be interested in helping on package foo, but feels
+</I>&gt;<i> too much inexperienced to take full reponsability for it. Peer review is
+</I>&gt;<i> important.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The idea is not associating a package with a single maintainer, but
+</I>&gt;<i> associate each package to a maintainer-group, say
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">NAME at packages.mageia.org</A>, and let maintainers subscribe to package
+</I>&gt;<i> maintenance.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> this would result that in case a ticket is opened in bugzilla vs
+</I>&gt;<i> package, all interested parties would be notified, and start working on
+</I>&gt;<i> a solution. (this might require a bit of coordination, but maybe just
+</I>&gt;<i> assigning the bug to a real person is enough to note someone is taking
+</I>&gt;<i> care of the problem)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> In this case a package will become unmaintained if no-one is subscribed
+</I>&gt;<i> to the group.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> we could even use refint_nothing in ldap to redirect
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">NAME at packages.mageia.org</A> to <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">unmaintained at packages.mageia.org</A> when noone
+</I>&gt;<i> is subscribed to a package.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Regards,
+</I>&gt;<i> L.
+</I>
+
+I am not averse to the idea.
+
+however i would also like to have a way to check who's on that list (it could
+be integrated with <A HREF="http://maint.mageia.org">http://maint.mageia.org</A> ) perhaps we need to abandon the
+idea of single maintainer and have &quot;maintainers&quot; (with primary maintainer) ?
