C. how about we make<packagename>@packages.mageia.org, which could use the

complex)
That is an elegant and excellent idea.
Elegant, but as in a changelog, that means the email does not
match/identify/link to the _person_ taking the step of actually
committing/releasing the change, but the team in charge of managing
the package. Is that wanted?
Is it possible to have the changelog display something more unique than
the group email address for ID purposes, but the email address for
communication purposes ?
Exactly. The id part is to identify the person who did the changes. It
could be the pseudo at Mageia or the real name. (Or even a fake name,
as far as I'm concerned.)
The email adresse is for contact for support, and I find the
<packagename>@packages.mageia.org idea elegant as well.
It is better for ensuring longterm communication than the email adresse
of the person doing the changes, as they could be no longer involved, or
have changed their email. If they are no longer involved, even
[email protected] wouldn't be very useful for contacts.
