Add a maintainer field to the metadata
Problem
When we use the admin, it shows when indicators were last changed but not who changed them, which makes it more annoying to ask questions or follow up on changes to our data.
Idea
We could add a maintainer
field at the dataset level, and all edits could be attributed to them when present.
Alternatives
- Some kind of tricky mapping of git usernames to our OWID internal accounts
Technical notes
- If we had this link, it would also be useful for a ton of downstream tools and applications where knowing who is associated with a dataset is helpful

We discussed this at the offsite and agreed that it'd be a very nice feature (we should implement it as part of other metadata changes).
I'm closing this issue, as it seems to be a duplicate of https://github.com/owid/etl/issues/2465
