Forwarding address for jsm28@gcc.gnu.org

Forwarding address for jsm28@gcc.gnu.org

[Joseph S. Myers]

Could the forwarding address for jsm28@gcc.gnu.org be changed to
jsm@polyomino.org.uk?  (I don't have shell access as jsm28, only as
gccadmin.)

Does the subscriber list of gcc-maintainers get (semi-)automatically 
updated from MAINTAINERS using the script Gerald sent in gcc-maintainers 
message 260?

The idea is that the list of subscribers to gcc-maintainers is generated
automatically from gcc/MAINTAINERS.

Back in June, I even hacked a bit of Perl to do that (though I'm sure you
could do it in just 1.5 lines <g>) and Jeff used this to regenerate the
subscriber list.  Perhaps this could be executed regularily/automatically?

(If so, I could add it to gcc/maintainer-scripts, for example.)

my $OMIT='rms@gnu.org|config-patches@gnu.org';

while( <> ) {
  chomp;

  if( /([\w\d.+-]+@[\w\d.-]+)/ ) {
    my $addr=$1;
    printf $addr."\n" if( not $addr =~ /$OMIT/ );
  }
}

Seems reasonable.    Hell, we could do it nightly :-)  Aren't the
cron scripts editable these days?

The script is now in CVS as maintainer-scripts/maintainer-addresses.

Yes, the crontab is in maintainer-scripts/crontab, where you can update
it and then (manually) install the updated version for the gccadmin user
on gcc.gnu.org.
