http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/metastructure/herds/herds.xml 8. apache Description The Apache web server and supporting packages Herd maintainers' email address apache-devs@gentoo.org Trying to assign something: Assignee: apache-devs@gentoo.org did not match anything Assignee: apache@gentoo.org did not match anything Do we have an Apache herd or not? Almost all metadata.xml for net-www/mod_* contain invalid metadata, BTW. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to assign a bug to Apache herd. Actual Results: Bad luck. Expected Results: To be able to assign a bug. Also, having correct docs would be nice. ;-)

There is no hard rule that <herd-name>@g.o must be the bugzie alias, and that is the case with Apache - bugs go to apache-bugs@g.o.
Not a bug(tm).
Pardon my ignorance, but invalid metadata.xml is a bug(tm). My main point was that apache-devs@gentoo.org alias does not exist. ;-) I just mentioned apache@g.o because this seems a logical next try if someone tries to assign a bug and encounters this inconsistency. Anyway, the above-mentioned web page and relevant metadata.xml should be fixed. Reopening and assigning to apache-bugs@g.o. Sorry that this bug was assigned incorrectly to infra-bugs.
apache-devs@g.o is the main point of contact for the Apache herd, which is why it's mentioned in herds.xml. If you want to reach the maintainers (us), you email that addy; if you want to assign bugs to us, you assign them to apache-bugs@g.o. Having two bugzie aliases is superfluous, so no we're not going to have apache-devs@g.o as an additional bugzie alias either. Finally, the metadata is not incorrect. Resolving INVALID.
So tell me, how do you expect anyone to assign bugs to the right address if it is not documented anywhere? And I understand you don't want 2 bugzilla aliases, but why not just change the address of the existing one to apache-devs@g.o?
