Bug#756954: subscription by uploaders
Control: subscribe -1
Hello,
I was just about to file a bug about this and found it already existing.
The way I was hoping this could work is that Uploaders are automatically
subscribed. I don't know of any reason why an Uploader should not be
following their packages. I think it would also motivate people who
really don't co-maintain a package to get themelves removed from the
Uploaders list, thereby correcting the package metadata.
I think this would also be simpler to implement than subscription
keywords in d/control (as mentioned in the OP). If it's still too far
out of you way, I'd be willing to implement a patch, but would
appreciate a tip about where to look in the code-base. I looked around
it and couldn't find a good starting point in the file hierarchy.
thanks and regards
Afif
