Being able to leverage get_maintainers.pl would be nice, even if it's a bit of a pain that we just got things into boards.cfg. On the other hand, it's good that we've just spent some time sorting and checking the information and it's a regex'able problem to go from boards.cfg to MAINTAINERS. -- Tom -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
