[PATCH 0/1] One additional boot reviewer

[Eric Farman]

Thomas,

I mentioned offline that we might have one more person that could help
keep tabs on the boot code, beyond Matt and myself. Here it is, if there's
still room for it...

[PATCH 2/4] MAINTAINERS: Update the s390x maintainers

[Thomas Huth]

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

I'm going to move to another project next month, so I will not have
enough time to take care of s390x patches anymore. Fortunately,
Cornelia volunteered to take over the job of collecting s390x patches,
and Eric and Matthew offered help to back her up, so we can keep
the "S390 general architecture support" section in the "supported"
state. Thanks for your help, Cornelia, Eric and Matthew!

Our correspondence had only begun recently, but as a QEMU user I
had been enjoying the fruits of your labor for much longer (though
I did not know it at the time). I'm so grateful for all of your
contributions and the help you so kindly gave during patch review.
I won't ask about this other project in case you have reasons not
to share it at this time, but I'll say this: in about a month, that
project is going to get a major upgrade in quality, and everyone
here will know exactly why.
Thank you for the time, energy, and care you put into QEMU!

Sincerely,
Yodel

Hi Thomas,

I can only echo Eric's statements!  It's been great working with you over the years -- thank you for all you've done for s390x.  Wishing you the best in your next role.

Hi Thomas,


It was a pleasure collaborating with you on the mailing list.

Thank you for all the work you've done and all the best with your next 
project!


Best regards,

Re: [PATCH 2/4] MAINTAINERS: Update the s390x maintainers

[Markus Armbruster]

Thomas has contributed more than 2200 commits in almost fifteen years.
And that's just what the machine can record!  Unrecorded, but certainly
not unremembered are the countless conversations, the help so generously
provided.  This loss will be felt.

Thank you, Thomas, and best of luck in your next adventure!

[PATCH 4/4] MAINTAINERS: Downgrade the functional testing section to "Odd Fixes"

[Thomas Huth]

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

I won't have that much time for QEMU anymore in the future, so downgrade
the status of the "functional testing framework" section to "Odd Fixes"
to avoid wrong expectations. While we're at it, also switch to my other
e-mail address here that I'm already using for the other sections where
I am still listed as maintainer / reviewer.

FYI, this section only applies to the core framework itself. The
individual test files are all distributed across the arch target
maintainers.

I was in two minds as to whether to declare myself a replacement
maintainer for Thomas. I'll try to collect & review any patches
to the core framework in the absence of anyone else wanting to
step up, but I didn't want to guarantee I'd be able to spend
regular time on it as a formal maintainer assignment.
