OProfile maintainership is undergoing some transitions as announced by
John on the oprofile list earlier today. 

In summary, Maynard is taking over the overall control of oprofile
userspace with Daniel advising on the JIT stuff and me taking on
responsibility for the arm kernel+userspace bits and the userspace GUI
bits. Robert has volunteered to take a role of looking after the kernel
side of things alongside or replacing Philippe depending on how he feels
about this - I'm not 100% clear on Philippe's position on things. John
will still be around to keep an eye on us all :).

Cheers,

Richard
