I would suggest to use <origin/> instead of <maintainedin/>.
We actually considered "origin" in the last buildservice meeting, however it was felt that it is too misleading, souding too much like upstream, which isn't the point in those case. Thus, we settled for maintained_in.
I also think that this feature becomes much more powerful and useful if it's not only thought in context of externals contributing to Factory, but as a generic branch tracking functionality. It can be very helpful to be able to find out after copying (or branching) projects and/or packages where they came from, i.e. where the original data lives.
I think you are right. Thanks for pointing that out. Helps me to see it clearer. Peter -- "WARNING: This bug is visible to non-employees. Please be respectful!" SUSE LINUX Products GmbH Research & Development
