The merger implied server changes, and the diasemi.com URL is likely to be end-of-lifed. Adam attempted to update MAINTAINERS with the sustainable mailing list address, but this was rejected. I appreciate the desire for an accountable name, but it's not that clear-cut who may be able to pick up effort. The mailing list was created as a backstop against employee churn/leave, so worth keeping - albeit updated. We do have a new employee who is slowly getting familiar with various aspects, but Mr T left decade sized boots to fill! At the risk of receiving every email twice, I suggest: +maintainers: + - Atif Emre Ofluoglu <DLG-Atif.Ofluoglu.opensource@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> + - Adam Ward <DLG-Adam.Ward.opensource@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> + - DLG Support Opensource <DLG-Support.Opensource@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> But, frankly, having a specific name to nag will not increase resources nor adjust priorities; the increase in visibility is illusory. I'd rather keep to just the mailing list, but this is the second time it's been rebuffed, so... I'll try to get the above into MAINTAINERS for PMICs (splitting off Audio products to David Rau), once I have time to get my Linux/LKML hat properly on again. Right now I'm fighting other fires... Anyway, thanks Conor for taking this on, and sorry for the slow response.
