[Qemu-devel] [PATCHv2 1/2] MAINTAINERS: add Artyom Tarasenko as SPARC maintainer

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Artyom has been working on QEMU's SPARC emulation for several years, providing
initial support for Solaris under qemu-system-sparc and more recently bugfixes
for qemu-system-sparc64 and TCG patch reviews. As work progresses on improving
emulation for sun4u machines and beyond, Artyom has agreed to take on
co-maintainership of SPARC with a focus on 64-bit architecture.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCHv2 2/2] MAINTAINERS: remove Blue Swirl as SPARC maintainer

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Blue is no longer active in the QEMU project, so remove him from the list of
SPARC maintainers.

What about the other things Blue nominally maintains?

    SPARC Machines
    --------------
    Sun4m
    M: Blue Swirl <blauwirbel@gmail.com>
    M: Mark Cave-Ayland <mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk>

    F: hw/sparc/sun4m.c

    Sun4u
    M: Blue Swirl <blauwirbel@gmail.com>
    M: Mark Cave-Ayland <mark.cave-ayland@ilande.co.uk>
    S: Maintained
    F: hw/sparc64/sun4u.c

These two still have a maintainer (you).  The remaining ones are
effectively orphaned, but you can't see that in MAINTAINERS.  I feel
keeping status there honest is important.

This one is okay to remove M and even bump to Maintained.  It is in
obviously heavy use and has been in the "miscellaneous" pool for a
while.  But I don't really long for having my name attached to it. :)

The FreeBSD guys have effectively forked bsd-user.  Orphan is appropriate.

Remove M and leave it as Odd Fixes, the TCG maintainers can have a look
at the occasional patch.

Looks like I missed these. I've spoken with Artyom about this off-list
and we're both willing to help out with sun4m/sun4u - I'll update the
patch to add ourselves, remove Blue and resubmit.

Sadly I can't help with TCG SPARC target as I don't own any SPARC
hardware (ironically the reason I started using QEMU in the first place..).

Outside of SPARC, I don't feel that it's my role to remove Blue from the
other areas of MAINTAINERS; perhaps that would best come from Peter?


ATB,

Mark.
