We could be boring and change "herd" to "packagegroup". |

We could require that a herd mail alias be maintained for every herd, |
10 |
with the same name as the herd, such that the herd alias lists the |
11 |
maintainers of all packages in the herd. The list could include |
12 |
project aliases and/or individuals. Then bug-wranglers can assign to |
13 |
the relevant herd alias if no maintainer is listed in metadata, and let |
14 |
the herd maintainers re-assign amongst themselves if appropriate. |
