All patches to the QEMU website should be CC-ed to the website
maintainers, who (right now) are Thomas and Paolo.

Signed-off-by: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

This is an RFC first because I feel bad about sending a patch that
gives people responsibilities who aren't me.  But Thomas seemed to agree
with me that making this requirement explicit would be nice, so I guess
someone has to send a patch for it...

Second, I'm not sure whether this is the ideal place.  Perhaps we should
have a MAINTAINERS file, but on the other hand, maybe that would be a
bit too much.

Don't feel bad, I'll make sure you'll have to send a v2.  Actually I'm 
kidding, this looks good to me and I've merged it.

But we should make a decision on accepting qemu-web merge requests on 
GitLab.  For that, apart from touching the CONTRIBUTING.md file, we 
should also edit 
https://www.qemu.org/2017/02/04/the-new-qemu-website-is-up/ which 
suggests using "git send-email".

Yes, that was a good idea. Ack from my side, too.

Not sure whether that old blog post is the right place for this information 
... we should maybe have a pointer to the information on 
https://www.qemu.org/contribute/ instead?

Well, as long as you aren’t asking me to take responsibility so I could 
feel less bad...

Thanks!

Well, it’s definitely not my decision to make, but FWIW I’m in favor.

Yes - right now contribute/ links to the old blog post for "Improve the 
web site", but I guess it couuld just go to 
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu-web/-/merge_requests; "whoever has 
ears, let them hear".
