That is where I would start as well. Or more specific looking what "get_maintainer.pl" gives me: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl ./tools/power/cpupower/ Thomas Renninger <[email protected]> (maintainer:CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM) Shuah Khan <[email protected]> (maintainer:CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM) "John B. Wyatt IV" <[email protected]> (maintainer:CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM) John Kacur <[email protected]> (maintainer:CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM) [email protected] (open list:CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM) [email protected] (open list) That means apart from using the linux-pm mailinglist, add as well as recipients the respecive maintainers responsible. Hope that helps you to start, feel free to as well CC the Debian bug so that (or at least point out when you have started the discussion upstream so that we can mark the bug forwarded). Regards, Salvatore
