Subject: [PATCH]add a note for MAINTAINERS
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2011 14:32:16 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110310063214.GA9990@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,
   Steven said we should add a note for MAINTAINERS,
which we should remove all individual 
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org in maintainers' "L:"
except linus's.
   Joe perches removed them and Andrew Morton
already picked up his.
   So i patch for Steven's thoughts.

Thanks.
Best Regards.
Harry Wei.
