Hi Debian Perl Group :) I noticed that we have a 'should' in the Debian Perl Group Policy about the Maintainer field in debian/control. I think we always required that packages maintained in the pkg-perl group repositories have that fields actually set to pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org . Any objection if I commit the attached patch to the policy (changing the should to a must requirement). Regards, Salvatore
