Bug reports by maintainer and package



Below is a listing generated by a new version of the bug summaries
script.

What do people think of it ?

I currently have the following crontab entries for generating bug
summaries to debian-devel:

23 16     * * 5   /home/iwj10/things/debian-bugs/scripts/mailsummary undone
23 16     * * 2   /home/iwj10/things/debian-bugs/scripts/mailsummary veryold

I'm inclined to replace the Wednesday posting of only the very old bug
reports with this new listing by maintainer and package, and to leave
the full reports sorted by age on Friday.  The reports sorted by age
now list the package maintainer where the originator used to be.

It's interesting to note that the people who are most involved with
the critical parts of the project are also those with the most
outstanding bug reports against their packages.  I think I shall be
following Ian M.'s lead and asking for some volunteers ...

Ian.
