GSoC 2019 [Collect build statistics]

[Arjun Salyan]

Hi,

I have added maintainer views and tables to the demo app.

   - List of maintainers is clickable on the port-detail page.
   - A maintainer-detail view that display info and list of maintained ports

Examples:
maintainer-detail:
https://frozen-falls-98471.herokuapp.com/maintainer/ryandesign__macports.org/

port-detail: https://frozen-falls-98471.herokuapp.com/ports/faust/


But, while extracting 'maintainers' from the portindex, maintaining
uniqueness was very difficult. There are a lot of inconsistencies-
- Same maintainer has provided GitHub details for one port and not for the
other.
- Same maintainer has provided different email for different ports.

I understand that it should be web-app's job to detect this and for now the
problem is mostly solved. But in future, one odd case and things can break.
What best can be done about this?

Thanks Mojca. I did some research for a detailed book and I found "An
Introduction to Database Systems" by C.J. Date (I also found it in the
library). I will let you know how it goes.

Thank You
