It doesn't hurt anything and it's included in '/usr/share/pacman/PKGBUILD.proto' so I believe it's preferable to leave it as is. Unless, of course, there is a reason for removing it (e.g. being obsolete).
* gcompris, gnome-hearts, movic, xdotool: Maintainer tag is just for TUs (if this become a reality then you can change again to Maintainer, but consider to do this change to the next release)
I always wondered about these tags/comments or what ever they are. I do not use vim, being fan of emacs. Well, they do not suck me hat much , but what are their benefits for vim users?
What should I add myself as, when adopting a package, if not using the
Maintainer tag? "Contributor" maybe?
Yes!
Helping other people write better PKGBUILDs is highly on my priority list as well.
I read some of your threads on bbs.archlinux.org and I think you do a good job concerning that.
