As discussed on irc: DM Sponsored upload: Say you have team consisting of a DM and non-DD. The non-DD makes some changes (puts his name into the changelog) and the DM signs the upload. The DM would not get a mail. I hope team maintained packages put a mailinglist as maintainer, at least those with DMs and non-DDs where a DM sponsored upload could occur. That way the ML would always get a mail and therefore indirectly the DM too. MfG Goswin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
