Then you're going to conjure up maintainers for the code which is currently
orphaned?
For most stuff, the way to co-ordinate global changes is to discuss it on
l-k. If there's an active maintainer for parts which are affected, and if
they care, they'll respond to mail on l-k. That statement is a tautology
with my definition of 'active maintainer'.
Bug reports are a red herring - users don't bother. They'll continue to
sent idiotic bug reports to l-k for stuff which has already been reported
and fixed, however we try to make life easy for them.
BTW, please try to ensure your .sig remains within the 4 lines recommended
by RFC1855. I appreciate that it's randomly chosen - but I also believe that
it's not beyond your capability to ensure that excessively long quotes are
not selected by whatever script provides the text to your MUA. If your
political statement du jour cannot be expressed in one or two lines, it's
inappropriate to include in mail to public fora.
