Yeah we have lots of MAINTAINERS entries for all the various things maintained as part of drm-misc. Only thing I'm encouraging is that everything has at least a T: git repo entry pointing at drm-misc somewhere, to have some easy overview of what's under the drm-misc umbrella. But the overall drm panel entry has that covered already. And we also have some other more specific entries for individual panels already. -Daniel > > Yours, > Linus Walleij > _______________________________________________ > dri-devel mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
