It's nice to give a person a ./CREDITS entry when we remove them from ./MAINTAINERS. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

However, Richard Purdie still remains as maintainers of other two entries as below: In this case, is it still necessary give him a ./CREDITS entry?

Necessary? No. Nice? Yes ;) I like to think that it reduces any of the sting from being removed from MAINTAINERS. Plus it is more accurate and costs nothing. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

It is sad to be removed from there but equally, I haven't had the time to spend on it for a while and it is justified. I am still around, I have been reading some of the patches, there are just other things which are more in need of my time (the Yocto Project primarily). I'd done what I'd set out to do with the backlight/leds subsystems and its time to let others take them forward. So a credits entry sounds nice and probably more appropriate now, thanks :) Cheers, Richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
