Hey Marc,

i'm not as good as you using git. Indeed i'm a git newbie and do not have the
time right now to get in that deep that i dare to post correct pull requests
to netdev.

Following the hints from Dave i checked the MAINTAINERS file how the wireless
guys handle their subsystem in detail. Regarding John Linville, who's
collecting all the stuff from several people to send finally push requests to
Dave i would suggest that you become our 'John Linville for CAN'.

You speak git fluently and you know the project very good - so my suggestion
to clean up the MAINTAINTERS file is this:
