Awesome, thanks Philip.  I've pushed the change to the repo this morning
that lists you in the maintainers file, but if you haven't got access yet
to push to the repo yourself I'll be happy to take a PR from  you and
merge it myself.  I think I'm finally getting my head above water today.

Also, Michael, we talked last summer about getting meta-selinux added to
the list of projects monitored by Patchwork at patchwork.openembedded.org
and everyone seemed in favour of it but we didn't seem to close the loop
on it.  What's needed from Philip / Mark / myself to make that happen?
