Hi Andy.
True, the status refers to the section, not the person.
Supported is a nominally "higher" level of stewardship
than maintainer. Supported is supposed to mean you get
paid to look after the code.
All of these section blocks aren't all that important
anyway. It's not like there's a signed contract or
something in case you don't review a suggested patch.
I think of these section blocks as one of the ways to
get the appropriate people to look at patches and bug
reports.
cheers, Joe
