16 * "When metadata.xml lists a single maintainer or herd, then you assign
17 the bug to that maintainer or herd. When the file lists multiple
18 entries, then you assign the bug to the first maintainer, and CC the
19 other maintainer(s) and herd(s). If you find that metadata.xml lists
20 inappropriate and/or confusing contact information, then make a note
21 of that in a comment on the bug report and assign/CC the bug report as
22 optimal as possible."[1]
