100%. 

And Vadym is the only person that should be listed there as far as 
I'm concerned. I'm intending to purge MAINTAINERS from all people 
who haven't reviewed patches in the last 3 or so years, so let's 
save ourselves the back and forth.

I'd suggest you create your own mailing list and add it under 
the L: entry, that way all managers and people within company 
who want to keep an eye on upstream can subscribe.

IMO MAINTAINERS is for listing code reviewers.
