6 I disagree about this point. IMHO the procedure described in
7 <http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/bug-wranglers/> makes more sense:

9 # When the file [i.e., metadata.xml] lists multiple entries, then you
10 # assign the bug to the first maintainer, and CC the other
11 # maintainer(s) and herd(s).
