Forwarding to the public list is your best option; going to one
developer is a good way for your email to get lost.

Hi Dan,
Didn't really how to answer your mail as I don't have write access to
the list so I'm just answering directly to you:
> If anyone [...] knows of very small issues that need fixing ...
When namcap'ing a package including scripts that use '#!/bin/sh'
instead of '#!/bin/bash', output is something like the following:
pkgname E: Dependency detected and not included (sh) from files ['script.sh']
(I know the AL standard page on the wiki says we should use bash
rather than sh but these are scripts included in the original
tarball.)
As we don't have any sh package that error sounds strange to me (I
have this "issue" on one of my packages in AUR)
Should we change these scripts so that they use bash instead of sh or
should we change namcap in order for it not to yield such error?
Thanks,
Guillaume ALAUX
