My concern is that folks will rebel against populating the CC list if
they never receive feedback from the CCed. I often have to go and
manually trim the CC list because I don't think Jiri, KP, Yonghong etc.
care about my random TLS patch, or removal of a driver which happens 
to contain the letters "bpf". I was hoping the delegation you're
performing could help with the large Cc list. Would you perhaps
consider moving the K/N regexes to the "Core" entry? It'd lower 
the pain of false positives.

Yeah, Exhibit A - vger is lagging right now...
I guess the "real fix" is on the vger, trying to massage MAINTAINERS
now is not a great use of time..
