Background: we want to notify spin maintainers when their particular
  compose fails. Specifically, tag them in the ticket so they get notified.

  (We could also possibly do email notifications or something else, but that
  gets into the general problem of "sending automated email sucks", so for
  first pass, tagging people in the pagure repo seems good.)

  Related ticket: https://pagure.io/releng/compose-tracker/issue/4

Problem: there's no consistent machine-readable source of truth for who to
  tag. Maintainer information is found in comments in the various kickstarts
  in https://pagure.io/fedora-kickstarts/tree/master, but it's not in a
  consistent format, and is sometimes a group mailing list rather than a FAS
  ID.

Two competing proposals

  Proposal A: make that header information consistent and required, with a
    format like:

      # SPIN-Maintainer-IDs: mattdm, mboddu
      # SPIN-Maintainer-Names: Matthew Miller, Mohan Bodhu
      # SPIN-Mailing-List: fedora-imaginaryimage@fedoraproject.org

    or something like that.

  Proposal B: remove maintainer info from unstructured comments, introduce
    new "maintainers.toml" file. (Because Of Course It Does, compose-tracker
    uses both Toml and Yaml. I've been playing with Rust lately, so I
    arbitrarily pick Toml.

     [spins]

      [spins.imaginary]
      fas = [ "mattdm", "mboddu" ]
      maintainers = [ "Matthew Miller", "Mohan Bodhu" ]

    or something like that. I'm just making this up as I type.   

Thoghts?
