I've been holding off re-proposing this, mostly because life is easier for us if we don't get arm@kernel.org cc:d on every single patch by people who run get_maintainers.pl -- it's the equivalent of getting linux-arm-kernel cc:d to your inbox. It's better signal-to-noise ratio if it's mostly platform maintainers that email us on that address with pull requests or patches they want applied. But yeah, it also means that the maintainer structure is undocumented. I'm open for suggestions. -Olof

Maybe we can put in the git tree and no email address? That at least documents some structure.
