Igor Mitsyanko would be another candidate for such a section, CC'ed.

Actually I find it convenient to have my work and other commits counted
separately in the -nse stats. You can use -ns for the combined stats.

On a related MAINTAINERS matter, Paul Brook's emails have been bouncing
and he hasn't replied via IRC or private mail so far. If anyone else can
reach him and/or fix MAINTAINERS that would be appreciated.

(me, I mostly care about automatic CC'ing ;-))

Cheers,
Andreas
