:) @Andy: It's not that i don't want anybody else to be a Maintainer of this module, but i am a bit confused with what is written in description of MAINTAINERS file... M: is not considered for Mail normally, but as Maintainer - who is bound to look and review at all the patches, Has right to Ack or Nack something (Only if he is on the logical side :) ) Suppose, if there are 10-20 people from different companies, who want to have themselves in cc for patches to a specific driver/subsystem, Will all of them add themselves to MAINTAINERS file? I guess NO. If you only want yourself to be in cc, then ideally after these patches you should be there without these changes. People must cc after running scripts/get_maintainers.pl and it should return your name too, if i am not incorrect. But if you want to be a MAINTAINER explicitly, which i believe you are not (looking at the commit log), then this change is fine. -- viresh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
