Developer id

I have experienced some problems with mails sent to latest committers.

If I understand correctly the committers mail address is found by comparing
the user id in SVN with the one under <developer> in the POM.xml. This match
seems to be case sensitive. Can anyone confirm that?

If that is case, it gives me some problems, since the SVN userid is NOT case
sensitive. Maybe because SVN is running on a Windows server.

Does anyone have a suggestion to work around that problem?

Would it not be much easier using consistent case at any place?
There are other platforms that are case sensitive and forcing a case will break there.
In the end this will require heavy logic for doing the right thing everywhere.
I doubt this effort is merited by the gain in ease of use (no need for caring about case used on some platforms).

Or did I miss the case here?

File an issue and eventually add a patch. The issue is with the map
generated by mapDevelopersToRecipients in this class :
