Please remember any moderated list entries originate here
by using get_maintainers.pl for a proposed patch or discuss
a particular subsystem.
If a moderator of a list decides an email chain about a
patch is somehow off-topic and does not forward the email,
likely that moderated list should be removed from MAINTAINERS.
Under what use case would you want to use get_maintainer and
_not_ cc a particular mailing list?
