there would be a problem putting SF user names in the "components" table 
which has to do with database normalization: we would put redundant info 
in component entries since a mantainer can be associated to more components.

So, that would really be a bad choice; it would also need a lot of work 
on the current PHP site code... :-(
Also, it would not give any advantage.. see below

Ooops; sorry; I did not mean that; I meant that in the mails generated 
by dumppendingcomp.sh script, have in their body all the infos about the 
component which has been submitted but do not contain *any* info about 
the mantainer who submitted that component (the Author name can be 
different from the actual mantainer...) so I'm going to add such info in 
the mails generated by the script.
So, when we receive the notification, we can read the mantainer's sf 
username directly in the mail... ;-)
