Hi Arthur, thanks for all your IMSM work over the years! It is great that you can continue contributing and do so more broadly. For the moment Jes Serensen will be co-ordinating mdadm (once I make a release ... tomorrow?) and Shaohua Li will be looking after the kernel/md side. I'm sure there is plenty of room for you too though. Only one person (at a time) can queue patches, but several can collaborate at development and support and bug fixing and testing and .... I suggest you find ways to co-ordinate with them. This: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108741 is currently most important in my mind, but there are other things to do.
