I'm just saying how i see it, please don't take offense, i don't mean this in 
any personal way:

 - login by binding from ldap (possibly some kind of SSO later)
 - maintainers list should come from ldap (an ldap filter on the packager 
group)
 - packages should come from hdlist or something
 - list of packages without maintainer
 - (possibly list of maintainer without packages)
 - mageia has core/tainted/non-free (not main/contrib)
 - don't know what compiled packages is doing there? afaik this is only 
usefull for source packages
 - link to bugs for each package
 - if logged in, possibility to grab/drop (co-)maintainership (possibly co-
maintainership)
 - possibility to drop all self owned packages, or some kind of checkbox 
operation
 - possibility to drop all owned packages for a user, if you're a package team 
leader
 - editing should then be irrelevant, (unless multiple maintainers)
 - (maybe it would be a good idea to put maintainership in ldap? or not?)


possibly not all features are required at the start, but imho there is still a 
huge amount of work to be done.
