Subject: MAINTAINERS: downgrade support for man-pages
From: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Unfortunately, Linux Foundation funding for my work on
man-pages/testing/doc under the auspices of the LF documentation
fellowship unfortunately ran out a short while ago (after earlier attempts
to seek funding, only Google stepped forward with a bit of further funding
for the position), so the patch below acknowledges something closer to
reality.

Unfortunately, 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 ;-).)
