Hi, while digging into an issue with the random driver [0] yesterday, I checked today the "Next/Trees" and random driver related informations in "MAINTAINERS" files. ...and have some questions. David's random tree is listed in linux-next [1]: 26 dwmw2 git git://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/random-2.6.git#master But [2] shows me that there were no activities in this tree for about 3 years. Is that still valid and/or should that tree be dropped? [ Sorry, for nitpicking but suffix "-2.6" should simply die in GIT repo and branch names after introduction of upstream's linux.git. ] [3] lists Ted as new random driver maintainer, but in [4] I found Matt as maintainer: 5656 RANDOM NUMBER DRIVER 5657 M: Matt Mackall <mpm@xxxxxxxxxxx> 5658 S: Maintained 5659 F: drivers/char/random.c I do not think that this is still correct and furthermore in Ted's random.git#dev tree I see commits changing "drivers/char/random.c" file. So, that above block should IMHO be dropped and "F: drivers/char/random.c" added to [6]? Just noticed while looking into linux-next and the recent random revival from Ted. Thanks to old and new random maintainers for their great work!
