You als might want to have a look at my eshowmaintainer I use for
bug-wrangling. It uses herds.xml to display herd email and maintainers
of the herd. You might need to adjust the location of the herds.xml.

You can call it with one or several packages on command line or call it
without arguments to start it in interactive mode.

Output looks like:

sven@luna ~ $ eshowmaintainer
