There's a ton of stuff I want to look after (bluez, gstreamer, pulse, avahi, X) which already has a maintainer from its yocto/poky/whatever legacy, but I feel is not being looked after with much attention. And adding to the problem is that most yocto people aren't using OE-core, but poky.

I feel the need to point out that you don't have to be the named
maintainer to submit a patch.

Personally I'd be happy to see maintainer ship go to other members of
the community.
I think a better approach would be to seek volunteers before we orphan
things? That way things which don't receive volunteers can stay with the
current maintainer?

Cheers,
Joshua
