Hi Tim,

I would say that you don't want to have someone listed as an owner who
is not currently involved in the code. Sometimes people who have
knowledge of a code area but very little time to work on it are made
peers, sort of "emeritus", so you could do that.

The owner should be the person involved with the code who has the best
knowledge of it and who makes the decisions about what goes in, what
stays out, how design is done and so on. The person with whom the buck
stops. If there isn't really such a person yet, it's OK for a module to
have no owner. That's just reflecting reality.
