Rather than removing MAINTAINER, how about we rename it to AUTHOR? That
would make more sense to how we use the MAINTAINER field (at least,
originally) in DETAILS. Though MAINTAINER is used by the games gurus to
designate which third of the games each of us maintains (so it makes sense
in that sense ;)).

Either way it goes, I think this'll be post-1.0. ;)
