Kalle,

Michael Buesch and I have been unofficial maintainers of this driver for years, 
but your change makes sense.

I would be more than happy to add you and/or Michael as b43 maintainers!
But I don't want to force anyone, it's not exactly a fun role :) Just
let me know what you prefer.

Given my advanced age, I have been busy trying to get rid of responsibilities, 
not take on new ones. I think making the driver an orphan is OK. As long as I am 
capable, I will continue to address any bugs that turn up.
