This is simply a means to forward patches to relevant lists that may have reviewers that care about changes to certain files. You suggested that linux-usb should get copies of these patches. These files are not marked as "Maintained", just "Odd fixes". I suppose these could be marked "Orphan" instead.

Just that maintainers aren't necessarily appliers. In fact, most aren't. > Add netdev to the L: list as well. I don't think it's necessary. get_maintainers already shows that via the NETWORKING DRIVERS section F: drivers/net/ Maybe adding W: http://www.linux-usb.org/usbnet might be useful, but it seems pretty out of date. btw: This is a similar section to what I suggested. No named "maintainer" NETWORKING DRIVERS L: netdev@vger.kernel.org W: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Net Q: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/ T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net.git T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git S: Odd Fixes F: drivers/net/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
