It was just disturbing: I was looking for a list for XFS
and found only maintainers.
Except dm-devel, no others public mailing list is used as a maintainer.
So I thought it was a misinterpretation after following commit:

commit 18caa67ad41212e6f82a675c40f461ffb45f098e
Author: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com>
Date: Thu Apr 12 17:05:05 2012 +0000

MAINTAINERS: retire xfs-masters@oss.sgi.com

xfs-masters@oss.sgi.com will be retired in favor of xfs@oss.sgi.com
sometime soon.
