Should the Dove patches go to the patch tracking > system or through Nicolas orion tree? I have no idea - I was surprised that you were asking me about Dove stuff as I've never had anything to do with Dove. Looking at Dove's history, it has been looked after by Nicolas, so it's up to Nicolas to declare what his intention is, and sort out replacement maintainers if he doesn't want to look after it anymore. In any case, the missing MAINTAINERS entry needs fixing to indicate who should accept patches for it, or whether mach-dove is orphaned.
