If maintenance can be defined on a per-directory level we can put a
MAINTAINERS file in listing maintainers for a directory and all its
subdirectories. For example,
ghc/MAINTAINERS would contain
simonpj
simonmar
libraries/base/GHC/Event/MAINTAINERS would contain
tibbe
bos
ghc/compiler/llvmGen would contain
benl
davidterei
and so on. To find a maintainer (e.g. to send a request for code
review to) you follow the directory hierarchy upwards, starting from
the directory in which you want to make modifications, until you find
a MAINTAINERS file. You then pick one of the maintainers there and
assign the ticket with the attached code for them to review.
Perhaps this is a bit too involved given the number of people involved.
