Mark,

I don't see it as lack of interest. Sorry if you got that impression.
But I don't keep a per-driver list of active people either, and I would
need one for purposes like this one. It appears, given your input, that
having such a list on top of MAINTAINERS would be good to have, so
I'll start to create one now. This should ensure you (and hopefully others)
won't be missed in the future.

Thanks,
Guenter
