What Daniel said is right, we don't have a single point today, we have boards.cfg, wiki and other stuff. Being able to leverage get_maintainers.pl would be nice, even if it's a bit of a pain that we just got things into boards.cfg. On the other hand, it's good that we've just spent some time sorting and checking the information and it's a regex'able problem to go from boards.cfg to MAINTAINERS. -- Tom
