I guess I'm not that social.

Most of these were the initial code submitters that
haven't had to change anything in quite awhile.

My suggestion is to change the below "M:" entries to "R:"
sometime after "R:" is upstream.

Maybe also change the sections that have only these names to
"S:	Odd Fixes" or "S:	Orphan" or add a new
"S:	Unmaintained but Reviewed" section type.

This might encourage people to take over maintainership of
old code, help people figure out who better to send a patch
to and maybe who's more likely to apply it.

Also reviewer ack's aren't an indication that an upstream
maintainer will pick it up and push it forward.

To Peter's point:

Maybe a better syntax might be something like:
R:	Steven Rostedt
	F:	kernel/sched/rt.c

where optional F:/X: lines override the default
assumption of all F:/X: from the section.

Anyone have any comment on these inactive maintainers
that should be converted to "R:" reviewers?
