The responsible file

This file contains a list of the responsible parties. Lines beginning with `#' are ignored. Each entry contains three fields, separated by colons:

responsible:full-name:mail-address

responsible

A name-tag description of the party in question, such as her or his user name, or the name of the group. This name is listed in the PR in the `>Responsible:' field.

full-name

The full name of the party ("Charlotte Bronte"; "Compiler Group").

mail-address

The full, valid mail address of the party. This field is only necessary if the responsible party has no local mail address or alias.

A sample `responsible' listing might be:

ren:Ren Hoek:
stimpy:Stimpson J. Cat:stimpy@lederhosen.org

Here, ren is a local user. stimpy is remote, so his full address must be specified.

The following entry must be present for GNATS to function:

gnats-admin: GNATS administrator:

(gnats-admin is a mail alias, so for this purpose gnats-admin is a local address.)
