Hi Krzysztof Kozlowski,

I think you misunderstood—these are different patches. 
This one only changes the maintainer. What I was referring to 
is another patch that removes parts of the DTS setting.
https://lore.kernel.org/all/eb47587159484abca8e6d65dddcf0844822ce99f.camel@mediatek.com/


I don’t know who AngeloGioacchino is, so isn’t it reasonable for
me to oppose directly changing the maintainer?
Or do you think everyone should know who AngeloGioacchino is 
and just accept this change?


Let’s put it this way: if a strager you don’t know suddenly comes 
to your home and says they’re now the maintainer of your house, 
would you be comfortable with that?

I think you’re the one twisting my words.
What I said was that I oppose people OUTSIDE of MediaTek becoming 
maintainers, not that I oppose other people in GENERAL.
In fact, I also mentioned that other MediaTek maintainers
would be joining.


Thanks
Peter
