Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: fix alphabetic ordering

This change was done using the following Python script:

	#! /usr/bin/env python

	import locale
	import re
	import sys
	import tempfile

	locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF-8')

	re_start = re.compile('P:')
	re_topic = re.compile('[0-9a-zA-Z][^:]')
	# F is undefined but used
	re_field = re.compile('[PMLWTSF]:')
	re_empty = re.compile('\s*$')

	prologue = True
	current_topic = None
	topic = dict()
	fixed_maintainers = tempfile.TemporaryFile()

	for line in open('MAINTAINERS'):
	    if prologue:
	        print >> fixed_maintainers, line,
	        mo = re_start.match(line)
	        if mo:
	            prologue = False

	        continue

	    mo = re_topic.match(line)
	    if mo:
	        current_topic = line
	        if topic.has_key(current_topic):
	            sys.exit(1)
	        topic[current_topic] = list()
	        continue

	    elif current_topic is None:
	        # rest of prologue
	        print >> fixed_maintainers, line,

	        continue

	    assert not current_topic is None

	    mo = re_field.match(line)
	    if mo:
	        topic[current_topic].append(line)

	    else:
	        mo = re_empty.match(line)
	        if not mo:
	            print >> sys.stderr, 'tralala', current_topic, repr(line)
	            sys.exit(1)

	first = True

	the_rest = 'THE REST\n'
	have_the_rest = False

	# sort case insensitive
	for t, body in sorted(topic.iteritems(), key=lambda i: i[0].upper()):
	    if t == the_rest:
	        have_the_rest = True
	        continue

	    if first:
	        first = False
	    else:
	        print >> fixed_maintainers

	    print >> fixed_maintainers, t,
	    for line in body:
	        print >> fixed_maintainers, line,

	if have_the_rest:
	    print >> fixed_maintainers

	    print >> fixed_maintainers, the_rest,
	    for line in topic[the_rest]:
	        print >> fixed_maintainers, line,

	fixed_maintainers.seek(0)

	maintainers = open('MAINTAINERS', 'w')
	for line in fixed_maintainers:
	    print >> maintainers, line,

I deleted the actual patch to save some bytes.  To get the real patch
you have several possibilities:

 a) look at http://modarm9.com/git/people/ukleinek/linux-2.6.git?a=commit;h=7f347bb1e138857fabc059b791cf50240fedd61f;
 b) fetch/pull from the maintainers branch at

 	 git://www.modarm9.com/gitsrc/pub/people/ukleinek/linux-2.6.git maintainers

    ; or
 c) extract the script above and apply it

Note that a) and b) probably stop working in the future.

Best regards
Uwe
