[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: remove myself from xfs

[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: remove myself from xfs

[Ben Myers]

SGI is stepping out of maintainer roles for xfs, xfsprogs, xfsdump, and
xfstests.  This removes me from the MAINTAINERS entry.

[SGI will continue to host oss.sgi.com as a repository for the XFS open
 source git trees, mailing list, and documentation as is provided today.
 And will also continue to participate in a less formal role.]

Thanks!  -Ben

Can you elaborate on why SGI is doing this?

As i said in private:

I'm saddened to hear this. Many thanks must go to SGI for providing
this service to the XFS community for the past 13 years and, most
importantly, for building the Linux XFS community in the first
place.

I'll push this up to linus in the next -rc pull request.

Cheers,

Dave.

Thanks for all the hard work Ben!

Hope we'll still have you and the others around even without the
maintainer burden on your shoulders.

We usually add a CREDITS entry for retiring maintainers, feel free to
add yourself there.
