Hello Sergei

Typically a reviewer isn't a maintainer.

Yeah, I didn't take courage to become a real maintainer, being always short of time... But I was annoyed by dubious quality patches being merged recently.

Does anyone actually maintain this?

   Only DaveM.

I suggest you mark this "S: Odd fixes" or
remove the "S:" line altogether unless you
really want to become the maintainer.

   OK, will remove, if that's OK.

PS: Since you seem to be get_maintainers.pl maintainer, I (and not only I)
would like to propose a switch to suppress the committers/authors/etc. It's generally annoying and unhelpful to have the bunch of people listed, none of which usually are a good addressees for the patches...

MBR, Sergei
