easy to add. Jason would be the person to do this (add a field to the db).
The web interface can easily be changed to update/view this info.

I actually have some code to do this, but until our bug system is ldapified
or at least have a non-textual backend, it will be difficult to do. Ben has
a bts ldap setup, but i understand it is not official and not necessarily
maintained all the time.

the problem with this is that many maintainers have packages registered
under different forms of their email address, so this is actually more
difficult to do. You will probably need to do something with the pgp/gpg sig
on the .dsc files. again, this is something i've looked at in the past, but
at that time i was asked to hold off until the bug system has been overhauled.

Wouldn't this just be a link to the mail archive for that mailing list?
