I disagree with leaving maintainer-needed as default assign, if you will |
19 |
fix bugs when you have time it's better than what I will do with |
20 |
maintainer-needed packages. |
21 |
|
22 |
Also, I think most of maintainers would like to have help with a lot of |
23 |
packages, but that is not enough reason to change their metadatas to get |
24 |
bugs assigned to maintainer-needed and us CCed |
25 |

Have you seen any case when "if anyone wants to take it" he is not able |
27 |
to because the package is "owned" by a herd? |
28 |
|
29 |
If you want to promote that package be taken by other as soon as |
30 |
possible, add a note to metadata telling that (I have seen it in some |
31 |
cases) |
