[Looks as though vger didn't like my long CC list, and didn't carry the message to the lists, so resending a slightly edited version to just the lists.] ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 1:47 PM Subject: [patch] MAINTAINERS: downgrade support for man-pages To: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: lkml <linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Jonathan Corbet <corbet@xxxxxxx>, Davide Libenzi <davidel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Jim Zemlin <jzemlin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>, Arnd Bergmann <arndb@xxxxxxxxxx>, Jeff Licquia <licquia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, David Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Mats Wichmann <mats.d.wichmann@xxxxxxxxx>, Roland McGrath <roland@xxxxxxxxxx>, Ulrich Drepper <drepper@xxxxxxxxxx>, Petr Baudis <pasky@xxxxxxx>, "H.

There will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from "Maintained" to "Odd Fixes" or "Orphan", unless some funding miracle occurs. So, if anyone is looking to become man-pages maintainer, there may soon be an opening (okay, don't trample me in the rush ;-).)
