[2.6 patch] remove obsolete Computone MAINTAINERS entry (fwd)

[Adrian Bunk]

The trivial patch below still applies against 2.6.10-rc2-mm2.

Please apply.

Subject: [2.6 patch] remove obsolete Computone MAINTAINERS entry

I'm not sure whether it makes sense to list the previous maintainers for 
orphaned code, but if such entries contain buouncing mail addresses it's 
IMHO time to simply remove them.

wittsend.com is still there and Michael still runs it.

	Yeah, I'm still here.  I've just been out of town almost one
week out of every two since June, so I'm more than a little behind on
catching up on the kernel stuff (yes and the Samba stuff as well,
I know, I know, sigh...).

	The message from James ended up in one of my spam cans (CRM-114)
and I missed it.  He only tried once.  I only found this because I
jumped onto the list archive trying to find references to system clocks
going crazy (loosing or gaining time like mad and ntp unable to keep up)
and ran across the threads...

	I've got two patches in my queue for the Computone drivers for
2.6 plus three patches that apply to both the 2.4 and 2.6 kernels.  I've
got to check to see if Marcelo got around to integrating those patches
into 2.4 and then jump onto the combined patches.

	As Shrek said...  (You didn't slay the dragon?) - "It's on my
todo list".

	Mike

At least the mailing list is definitely dead:

<linux-computone@lazuli.wittsend.com>:
Sorry, I wasn't able to establish an SMTP connection. (#4.4.1)
I'm not going to try again; this message has been in the queue too long.

It seems you are still active :-) , so why is it "Orphaned"?

	The mailing list use to be run by Louis Zamora who use to work for
Computone.  Guess I need to deal with that and move it to some of my
own hardware.  I hadn't realized it was out of commission.

	Good question.  Probably someone jumping the gun a bit because
I haven't been very active on that driver lately.  I do tend to drop
off the radar for months at a time, depending on other projects and
engagements.  I haven't done updates to the driver in the 2.6 kernel
and, yes, it is broken.

	Marcelo integrated my 2.4 patches and I've got testers running
that code now.  I've got a 2.6 patch that integrates those fixes and
fixes some 2.6 problems.  In the course of working on the 2.6 patch
I stumbled onto another problem that had to be retrofitted back into
the 2.4 patch which, fortunately, made it into the patch I gave to
Marcelo.  I'm looking over a couple of other changes that went in with
that 2.4 update.  I'll try and get a patch out in a couple of days
against 2.6.10.
