Subject: Re: [patch 2.6.18+] MAINTAINERS - take over scx200-* and pc8736*
 drivers


Add MAINTAINERS entries for new scx200_hrt and pc8736x_gpio drivers, and 
take over maintenance of scx200_gpio, authored by Christer Weinigel 
(which Ive hacked at), who no longer has the hardware.
Also take over hwmon/pc87360, authored by Jean Delvare, who's dropped 
maintenance to dedicate more time to hwmon subsystem.

Christer acked this off-list already, in case he's too busy and misses 
this one.

Ack.  I was ambivalent about this, since its not a driver, and nobody 
would modprobe it directly.
I went for thoroughness, assuming Id be corrected.. ;-)
