</I>><i> <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">NAME at packages.mageia.org</A>, and let maintainers subscribe to package
</I>><i> maintenance.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> this would result that in case a ticket is opened in bugzilla vs
</I>><i> package, all interested parties would be notified, and start working on
</I>><i> a solution. (this might require a bit of coordination, but maybe just
</I>><i> assigning the bug to a real person is enough to note someone is taking
</I>><i> care of the problem)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> In this case a package will become unmaintained if no-one is subscribed

</I>><i>
</I>><i> we could even use refint_nothing in ldap to redirect

</I>><i> is subscribed to a package.

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 "maintainers" (with primary maintainer) ?
