It was just disturbing: I was looking for a list for XFS
and found only maintainers.
Except dm-devel, no others public mailing list is used as a maintainer.
So I thought it was a misinterpretation after following commit:

commit 18caa67ad41212e6f82a675c40f461ffb45f098e
Author: Ben Myers <bpm@....com>
Date:   Thu Apr 12 17:05:05 2012 +0000

     MAINTAINERS: retire xfs-masters@....sgi.com

     xfs-masters@....sgi.com will be retired in favor of xfs@....sgi.com
     sometime soon.
