+But, he is the maintainer:
+$ mgarepo maintdb get kdebase4-workspace
+mikala
+$ mgarepo maintdb get soprano
+mikala
+$ mgarepo maintdb get qt4
+mikala
+
+(Granted, the maintainers database currently doesn't cater to teams, and I
+have no background of how the KDE team is working at present).
+
+While we don't have a finalised packager's policy, the conventional meaning of
+the 'maintainer' is he/she who has final authority over a package. This is
+implied by some of the existing policies which assign specific
+responsibilities to the maintainer:
+<A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=updates_policy</A>
+<A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=bug_policy">http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=bug_policy</A>
+
+While mikala is the maintainer of the packages, and until the packager's
+policy is completed, common courtesy dictates that you respect the decisions
+of the person who is impacted more (due to having more responsibilities) by
+changes you want.
+
+&gt;<i> and i was forced to follow your ideas.
+</I>
+As it should be at persent, based on the output above.
+
+&gt;<i> It would much more productive if we could all use our efforts to
+</I>&gt;<i> develop instead other things.
+</I>
+I note that to someone who hasn't been following everything in detail, that it
+seems you need to communicate better with, and respect the decisions of, the
+people whose packages (and contribution) you are affecting.
