Hrm, this is making me wonder if a combined alias for new ebuilds and ebuilds that need maintainers could be used. The current alias as new-ebuilds probably wouldn't fit this as well. If seemant is up for it, we could just use something like need-maintainers or something simliar to that name? If we did that, would we still need the resolution? --=20 Lance Albertson Gentoo Infrastructure | Operations Manager --- Public GPG key: Key fingerprint: 0423 92F3 544A 1282 5AB1 4D07 416F A15D 27F4 B742 ramereth/irc.freenode.net --=-afvI3Crupzp+LvMN7db5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBCrgGUQW+hXSf0t0IRApDHAJ9UrC95wN078rZG91CIXY4fY6CNZwCeJv3l MjJ4sqnH4yP6+I5Sbfu5DUI= =Z3zk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-afvI3Crupzp+LvMN7db5-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
