As far as I understand it, wouldnt making you the first maintainer in the list but adding 'contact=0' and a comment that you are the primary maintainer within the herd, and then following the herd as the maintainer the bug is to be actually assigned to fix this? Naturally most users will read your comment first as it is at the top of the file, thus know that you are the one to be contacted in case of random questions, but the herd will still be the bugzilla account the bug is assigned to. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
