</I>>><i> 1)What to use in the From tag in the mail to the changelog list.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Mandriva: From: Full Name <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">devel at mandriva...</A>>
</I>>><i> Mageia: From: Mageia Team <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">buildsystem-daemon at mageia....</A>>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> IMHO, it is beneficial to have the "name" of the submitter of the package in
</I>>><i> the From tag, you can easily, from just looking at the list of mails in a
</I>>><i> folder, see what packages were updated, and if they are packages you maintain,
</I>>><i> who submitted them, without even having to open the mail. Having a generic
</I>>><i> static text here is of no benefit ...
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Indeef I find usefull to know who submit what directly.
</I>><i> If I've short time to review uploads, I can focus my time on what
</I>><i> I think should be reviewed.
</I>><i> Then I mail the packager about stuff.
</I>><i> If it's generic enough, I cc: the packaging ml so that everybody can benefits.
</I>><i>
</I>>><i> Proposal 1.1:
</I>>><i> From: $user{cn} <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">packages at mageia.org</A>>
</I>>><i> e.g.
</I>>><i> From: Buchan Milne <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">packages at mageia.org</A>>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> If we want to rather try and build teams who work on specific groups of
</I>>><i> packages, it may be better to have use:
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Proposal 1.2:
</I>>><i> From: $user{cn} <%<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">name at packages.mageia.org</A>>
</I>>><i> e.g.
</I>>><i> From: Buchan Milne <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">openldap at packages.mageia.org</A>>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My preference: 1.2 or 1.1
</I>><i>
</I>>><i> 3)What to use in the %changelog section of the spec file
</I>><i> (...)
</I>>><i> Proposal 3.1:
</I>>><i> $user{cn} <$user{uid}> %version-%release
</I>>><i> e.g.
</I>>><i> Buchan Milne <buchan> 3.5.7-1mga
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Porposal 3.2:
</I>>><i> $user{cn} <$user{mail}> %version-%release
</I>>><i> e.g.
</I>>><i> Buchan Milne <<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">bgmilne at mageia.</A>>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> My preference: 3.2 so that we can efficiently perform peer review.

+1 on both TV's comments. Email addresses are the new "username" in
today's VCSs anyway....
