At that glob suggested making "Who Owns What" the primary storage for Module Owners/Peers information. It solves two problems at once as far as I'm concerned. It can provide an API interface for people to query the data in it (which I was planning for), we can use it to generate the existing wiki page, and it can let us build an easily searchable interface for module and their peers. Of course, this means custom work and maintaining yet another service/website. So I'm open to be told I'm completely wrong. _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
