We could, for example, have an extension with would implement something like: .. maintainers:: Which would call get-maintainers in order to parse a subsystem-specific set of entries and printing the maintainership details.

Even if we go for adding a Sphinx tag that would produce a parsed output for a system-specific profile, we'll still have several other subsystems that won't have a profile for a while, so I would still consider having somewhere an output with its contents. Yeah, someone might be tempted to print it, but we could place it on a separate PDF, in order to minimize the risks of someone printing the 300+ pages. > > So I dunno, we need to think this through a bit... > > jon Thanks, Mauro _______________________________________________ Ksummit-discuss mailing list Ksummit-discuss@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ksummit-discuss
