Jingoo is listed (along with Richard, but he hasn't been responsive to email for years) as maintainer for the backlight subsystem. Furthermore back at the time when I began working on the PWM subsystem, the backlight sub- system was pretty much orphaned, and pwm-backlight was by far the biggest user of the PWM subsystem. I adopted the driver at the time because it needed to be updated for PWM subsystem changes. What's the plan going forward? Given the coupling between the PWM subsystem and the pwm-backlight driver it might be useful to keep maintaining it as part of the PWM subsystem. On the other hand, there's some coupling between the driver and the backlight subsystem too. I have a couple of patches queued up for 3.13 that rework parts of the driver, so it'd be good to know how you guys want to handle this. Thierry
