Ack! I can see a good reason for a list of maintainer => package
relations but I can very easily live without people bugging me
in private email.
I can't even see any reason for private conversation about official
packages. This is public property. Questions, bug reports, etc.
about packages or Cygwin itself should always go to the list, not
to a single person.
