And what if I adopted a package from someone? Am I a Contributor or a Maintainer on that case?
In all cases the Maintainer tag if present should have the same information as that of the web interface. Otherwise it loses its relevance.
email addresses can change and be off, the tag in the PKGBUILD rarely contains the username but the realname is mostly the same, all provided a new maintainer didn't forget to add his credentials to the PKGBUILD. So yeah, the information is almost always different to some degree. But: what must be the same? I realise that it would be nice if it was the same. Philipp
