Brian has been maintaining the MTD subsystem alone for several years now, and maintaining such a subsystem can really be time consuming.
Create a maintainer team formed of the most active MTD contributors to help Brian with this task, which will hopefully improve the subsystem reactivity.
Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@free-electrons.com> --- Hi all,
I'm just trying to summarize what I understood the process would be, don't hesitate to correct me if I'm wrong.
For each release we will assign a specific MTD maintainer which will be responsible for taking MTD core patches and pulling spi-nor and nand PRs into the MTD tree and eventually send one or several PRs to Linus.
For fixes that are submitted after -rc1, I usually ask Brian to apply them directly into the MTD tree (I don't think there's a real need to prepare spi-nor and nand PRs for fixes), so we can proceed the same way: ask the maintainer assigned to this release to also take care of applying fixes and sending PRs to Linus before each -rc.
If you have other ideas, or would like to proceed differently, don't hesitate propose them.
Thanks,
Boris --- MAINTAINERS | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+)
