Re: Adding a "Maintainer: " field to setup.hint

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

Perhaps keep "maintainer" all lower-case, for consistency with existing setup.hint fieldnames?


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.

Sounds good.


To avoid duplicating information, maybe add a maintainer field only to non-"external-source" packages?

Max.
