+<PRE>Hi there,
+
+it looks like we will need a database to know who maintains what, basically.
+
+It used to be <A HREF="http://maintainers.mandriva.com/">http://maintainers.mandriva.com/</A> - its source code has
+no explicit license, so we've got to build this again.
+
+I drafted a very quick page for this here:
+<A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=web:maintdb">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=web:maintdb</A> with basic entites and
+relationships.
+
+Now, it would good to know what packagers (and others) need for this.
+For instance:
+ * instead of having a single maintainer for a given package, have
+several maintainers (with an admin maybe) over a given package (easy);
+ * should there be groups of packages defined? (this adds/replicates
+some logic that may already be somewhere else)
+ * should there be explicity groups of maintainers? or implicit (as
+made of people maintaining the same package)?
+ * should there be (customizable) alerts/warnings for people, when a
+new package is added, or removed, or that has no more maintainer?
+ * ?
+
+Thing is, this should be a really small, basic, simple component app.
+So it plays easily with other components. I don't know how this could
+be implemented/used or replaced by mageia-app-db however.
+
+Thanks for your insights.
+
+Cheers,
+
+Romain
