<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
