removed liquidx and added gnome to the list of herds.

Two specific feature requests:
1. Check that every email address has a bugzilla account.
2. Check that metadata with a proxy maint also has a non-retired Gentoo
person listed.

How is he going to do this without db access?

There's a creative bugzilla query for it, but you have to test each one
individually. For mass-checking, I'd offer sets of the email addresses,
hashed, so that you have to know an address to check it against a static
list.

i'll look into it. a hashed list of gentoo.org bugzilla accounts would 
definitivly help! just the query is a good start though - i suppose (lets 
try that first). the script runs a couple of minutes anyway - if that 
doubles, triples or quadruples its not a problem...

'Proxy maintainer without gentoo association' means 'there is neither a 
herd nor a gentoo maintainer listed'. you want to require a maintainer? a 
lot more ebuilds will fail this check...

one may actually want to restrict that even further, and require both a 
herd and a maintainer, as to define a pool of backup people in case the 
gentoo maintainer retires.

thanks!

kind regards
Thilo

I actually ran into this when jakub asked me to check some email
addresses that were in metadata.xml for bugzilla validity.

Originally, the one package was proxy maintained, having the external
and two Gentoo devs, with no-herd. The devs then retired, but the
external contributer was still interested, just lacking a contact.
