Hello, all.
I was checking out the sybase spells in the grimoire, and checked out the
DETAILS file and found that the maintainer listed is hvisage AT envisage.co.za.
That is the e-mail address for Hendrik Visage who, I believe, is exclusively
on the Lunar Linux project. I then grepped the devel grimoire for his e-mail
address and found it listed in 17 spells.
I have a few questions. First, is Hendrik actually maintaining these spells?
Second, are these spells even being monitored for updates or changes. I'm
wondering how many other spells exist in the grimoires that have maintainers
listed who are no longer active. And third, what sort of mechanisms do (or
should) we have in place to try and reduce orphan spells? Is it basically
the guru's job and therefore the guru should always be listed as a
maintainer, or have the maintainer field removed from the spells entirely?
