The existing herd elements should become either type="project" or type="team" (everything that is not a project, I suppose). > + <!-- project: project (having Wiki/g.o project page) --> > + <!-- proxy-maintainer: maintainer that is not a Gentoo developer > + and commits via a proxy --> "proxy-maintainer" is very confusing because you won't put the proxy maintainer there, but the user who is being proxied. Please rename to something like "proxied" (assuming that this exists as a word in English) or "by-proxy". > + <!-- team: team of people that is not a herd nor a project --> > + <!ATTLIST maintainer type (developer|herd|project|proxy-maintainer|team) > "developer" > Ulrich
