I'm a Russian troll. So remove myself from the maintainers list.

Never did a good job as a driver maintainer anyway.

Maybe Jonas Malaco or Aleksa Savic will be interested in picking up
the driver.

Apologies for any inconvenience.

I will not accept political statements into the hwmon subsystem.
Please chose a different description.

There are no "orphaned" hwmon drivers. Those automatically fall back
to the hwmon subsystem maintainers. Please remove the entry entirely.

Thanks,
Guenter

I am assuming that you are not a Russian troll and are instead offended by
Linus comment regarding the maintainer de-listing.

Lets just say that i too do not like it if someone calls people "Russian trolls"
without any proofs. And i too agree that a more open approach regarding such
decisions is necessary.

It would be a shame if we loose maintainers because of this. Is there something
i can do to change your decision?

Thanks,
Armin Wolf

I'm Russian. Whether I'm a troll or not - depends on your perception,
I guess. After reading recent emails on the topic, I decided I don't
want to contribute anymore.

I haven't been that active, it was just a hobby, sending a small patch
from time to time. I think you'll not lose much. After all, maybe I
should have been removed anyway - but was overlooked because my e-mail
isn't on a ".ru" domain.

Could you remove me correctly with a patch description that you like,
please? I can't make up anything good-looking and non-political. And
I'm not going to submit any patches anymore. Sorry.
