I'm thinking about adding a maintainer field to setup.hint which would
have meaning only in setup.hint but would allow us to more easily track
who maintains what. It would look like this:
Maintainer: Chris Faylor
i.e., no email address, just a person's name (for obvious reasons).
I could then add this information to the cygwin packages web page.
Orphaned packages would be changed to either "Orphaned" or "Up for Grabs"
or "MIA".
Does anyone have a problem with this? If not, I'll use the info that
Corinna is gathering to modify the setup.hints on sourceware.org.
