(I'm waiting for more SoBs before merging this)

I pinged some developers that don't use to listen to the media ML
as often as they used to do, and to the sub-maintainers, via the
sub-mainainers ML, and got some SoBs. Let me add them to this thread:

Johannes:

"I think I didn't contribute to that documentation?
 Anyway, just in case: I agree with the change to
 forbid adding invariant sections."

Signed-off-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Ralph:

"I also do not think there is anything left in there which I contributed.
 The original documentation up to 2002 probably is copyright of Convergence.

 But I agree with the change to forbid adding invariant sections regarding
 anything in that documentation that might be my copyright."

Markus:

 The same is true for me.

 I also agree with the change to forbid adding invariant sections
 regarding anything in that documentation that might be my copyright."
