Sathesh will also be maintaining and submitting the changes for octeon_ep drivers, going forward. Is the right way for this is, add Sathesh to MAINTAINERS list along with his first patch/patchset submission ? > > $ git log --author=sedara@marvell.com > $ git log --grep=sedara@marvell.com > $

The patch is perfectly fine. Please see my question as half survey half commitment device. I don't think we have a crisp enough understanding of responsibilities of "corporate" maintainers. It always worries me when I see someone who never (AFAICT) sent an email to the list before get nominated as a maintainer. So I'd like to hear from Sathesh, clearly stated, what responsibilities and SLAs he's taking on. Once we gather input of this nature from a handful of maintainers maybe we can distill a guide in Documentation/process/...

Let me suggest one responsibility: - reply to maintainers' questions in a timely manner... Please repost with the answer folded into the commit message once you figure out what to say.
