</I>&gt;<i> &gt; tool to configure notification ) can be constructed upon that.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Thanks for the pointer. Already noticed a few things:
</I>&gt;<i> 1. It uses the LATEST-IS files and there was a bug with that and not

</I>
The original setup do use others sources ( others distro, freshmeat, etc
), so I guess this bug would not affect us too much.

But if I understood well, this is fixed so it would be ok in the long
term ?

&gt;<i> 2. It uses <A HREF="http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/gnome.org/sources">http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/gnome.org/sources</A> instead of
</I>&gt;<i> either <A HREF="http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources">http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources</A> (primary mirror) or
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://download.gnome.org/">http://download.gnome.org/</A> (currently just redirects to primary mirror,
</I>&gt;<i> long term goal is having it redirect to closest mirror).
</I>
I guess that can be fixed quite quick. 

&gt;<i> Didn't fully analyse yet, but noticed it uses a database, so think I'll
</I>&gt;<i> need to make two things:
</I>&gt;<i>  - script to process live update messages (ftp-release-list in case of
</I>&gt;<i>    GNOME)
</I>&gt;<i>  - script to notify people (either immediately or when youri runs from
</I>&gt;<i>    cron) + setting in database which ensures the announce only goes out
</I>&gt;<i>    once
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I'll try to work on this.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> How would the maintainer data be stored btw? Should it be a config file
</I>&gt;<i> that a script generates, LDAP?
</I>
It would be in a web software, with a json export. But the software is
not finished yet, Pascal Terjan said he would look at it. See
<A HREF="http://gitorious.org/mageia-maintainers-database-r2">http://gitorious.org/mageia-maintainers-database-r2</A>

&gt;<i> Also: is a maintainer always the same for all branches? e.g. if someone
</I>&gt;<i> maintainers metacity, that person is responsible for Cauldron, stable
</I>&gt;<i> releases, backports, etc (some distributions differ on this)?
</I>
So far, yes. We discussed the concept of having more than one maintainer
however per package.
