yes indeed. KFI, sorry. But to quote you:
"BUGS_TO just provides you with a means to find out whom to to contact
in case of doubt/questions/whatever."
I think that is what it is actually used for, besides your scripts which
easily could work with any "tag" right?
"If someone who's in BUGS_TO vanishes, BUGS_TO's contents should be kept
as-is until he's formally retired. (Which in the actual case I hope we
won't do yet.) If someone else wants to be in there, he can add himself
to it or even replace the former person's entry."
BUGS_TO can be used by non-developers in unofficial-repos, i would
probably say someone can be removed from BUGS_TO/CONTACT when they have
be unavailable for a long time while someone else has been added in
there. The last part i don't agree with, if anyone can just remove you
from BUGS_TO, what is the point?
Nobody says Ciaran has to do the work, we could just make a ticket and
anyone could do it. It does not have to be high priority either. But not
fixing something because we have patches in the pig is a lousy argument :P
I don't think it's worth a split second of anyone's time.
That's ok, but if someone wants to implement it, I fail to see the harm
:) I think it is a good idea that new contributors know what the
metadata we use means, and to me the way we use BUGS_TO is more like
CONTACT. Anyway, a patch for e-f-s would certainly help, and as with a
lot issues it can be done if/when anyone feels like it.
