From 981c3a4ff8596a9dcd2b058ee12d6749639c32a5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 10:59:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Restore "L: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org" entries A couple of years ago all the "L: lkml" email list entries in MAINTAINERS were removed and replaced with a 'the rest' entry at the end of the file - under the theory that this is unnecessary duplication and that people would find it intuitive: b5472cddbe2c MAINTAINERS: remove L: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org from all but "THE REST" So it turns out that it's all but intuitive, not all people use scripts/get_maintainer.pl to extract maintainer contact info, some people read the MAINTAINERS file and see the lack of 'L:' entries of various lkml-only subsystems and are sending patches to the maintainers only, without Cc:-ing lkml. They arguably have a point. In hindsight removing all the "L: lkml" entries was probably not an overly good idea, not all mechanic duplication should be eliminated: in files read by humans it's useful to have 'at a glance' summary for all email addresses important to a subsystem's maintenance, in a single place, without too many imported rules and assumptions. So, to make the lkml fallback really apparent, add back 'L: lkml' entries to all subsystem entries whose workflow I'm involved in. This should at minimum be a per subsystem policy thing.
