Shifts blame.> In fact scsi is the area in which I have the most who-maintains-what trouble. I just don't believe what MAINTAINERS says about scsi drivers and I tend to resort to git-whatchanged to find out who's really doing stuff. The number of people@xxxxxxxx makes my head spin and I tend to cc as many as I can get my hands on. IOW: some care and attention to the ./MAINTAINERS file would really help here. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
