Re: DM and pkg-perl (recap 1)

hmmm.... They both sound about the same to me.  It might be nice to recognize contributors in a machine-readable format so that a registry / database could be generated that contains such information some time down the road.  So if either of these is decided on, be sure that linda / lintian will be able to parse it.

Cheers,

Uploaders from all over the world, what do *you* think? Do you prefer
that your name is listed in a (commented out) control field, or is the
presense in debian/changelog enough?
