according to debian/testing's /usr/share/doc/util-linux/copyright:

-----
This is the Debian GNU/Linux prepackaged version of util-linux.

This package was put together by Guy Maor <[email protected]> and later
maintained by Sean 'Shaleh' Perry <[email protected]>.
Current maintainer is Adrian Bunk <[email protected]>.

hope that helps,

I think this is only the Debian package.

There is a file in the util-linux tar-ball called MAINTAINER and it
says:

Maintainer: Andries Brouwer <[email protected]>
Maintainer address: [email protected]

Maintainer of getopt: Frodo Looijaard <[email protected]>
Maintainer of simpleinit: Richard Gooch <[email protected]>

That information refers to the people who assembled and maintain the
Debian package, not the upstream.
