Thanks Angelo to volunteer on this. It actually was on my list for the last days 
to ask you to help me out as I'm not able at the moment to cope with the review 
process. That's unfortunate and we missed one merge window (August) where I took 
no patches but after holiday situation didn't get better. I don't want to be 
break in the MediaTek upstream development, so it's great to see you stepping up.

As I read in the thread, I agree the best will be to have a share tree at 
kernel.org. It seems I can't share my tree with you, so hopefully you will get 
access fast.

My idea is to not disappear and create a collaborative process for us on the 
maintainership in the future.

I think you didn't tried matthias.bgg@...nel.org, but that should be no excuse 
from my side for being unresponsive. Thanks for your help!

Please contact me on IRC for any coordination.

Matthias
