We could have a structure something like this :

Primary key : name of package

Other fields, 1:1 relation :
- package rpm category (+ subcategory, if any)

What is the category ?

I meant the rpm group tag

- repository
- etc

Other fields, 1:N relation :
- Packager nickname + packager status (primary maintainer, trainee or
whatever) + real name + email
(The last 2 items could be in a separate table keyed by nickname.)

Why duplicate infos from ldap database ? And why would we need that in
maintainers db ?

Basically info in the packager wiki page.
what ldap database ?

- Package dependancies (names of other packages)

Why would we need that in maintainers db ?

- Package provides (names of other packages)

Why would we need that in maintainers db ?

These are just ideas thrown out for discussion.
All info related to packages.
If all such info were included, it could facilitate the validation of packages - if we were to find that a good idea.

Obviously going a little beyond a bare list of packages and maintainers.
