On a more serious note, how does one become a maintainer for a recipe in

Surely maintainer or not you can just test and send patches for the BlueZ
recipe in OE-core as you would any other recipe? I suspect if you do this
often enough you'll become the de-facto maintainer anyway.
Koen,
Paul is right, and you also have a good point about becoming a
maintainer. Currently as you have seen, its mostly the Yocto Team doing
updates with some other fixes and updates coming from the community and
that these updates are when a team member goes through and does a load
of them at once.
If you would like to update a recipe, feel free to send tested patches.
Moving forward, I will propose a process to the OE-Core TSC that would
include some basic requirements of maintainership, so things don't drift
into staleness.
Thanks
Sau!
Cheers,
Paul
