This is because get_maintainer.pl seems to insist on *always* outputting emails. I guess that was its sole original purpose, and it stuck to it? It kinda makes sense to me, especially given the name of the script, but at the same time, as a consequence you can't query *only* the tests (or anything but emails, really). Therefore we have to be able to somehow filter out the emails from the get_maintainer.pl output, to get only the tests. Email addresses *have* to have the '@' character (seems to be the only reliable thing about them :D), so naturally I chose that as the way to distinguish them from the tests. It's ugly, but considering the get_maintainer.pl legacy, it's good enough. I don't mind changing get_maintainer.pl, though, to stop it from outputting emails (e.g. given an option), if that works for everyone involved. Nick
