E.g. for Tramp, Kai is not involved any more, so the right fix is to add a "Maintainer:" to tramp.el. > II) There are files with plural versions of 'Author', 'Maintainer' headers > For instance, lisp/net/rcirc.el In this case `lm-maintainer' fall back > in `lm-authors' so that Liu wouldn't be in CC.

I don't think we want to make lisp-mnt.el into some kind of DWIM guesswork when we can very easily fix the files. Stefan
