Ok, that's fine, we can split it out like that if you want. When I put
the list together, ajax suggested that you might be the most
appropriate person to list as ATI maintainer, but it sounds like no one
really wants take full responsibility for radeon given how much trouble
it is...

Cool, sounds good. You may as well put your name there then; you can
always pass it off if someone else decides they'd like to own it
instead.

Ok, I can dig up that info and fixup the list.

Wasn't sure--I know David is pretty busy and I didn't want to volunteer
him without talking to him first. He'd probably also be the best
choice for Linux/sparc maintainer.
Can you go ahead and update the file in CVS to reflect the stuff you
wanted to own (and maybe add Thomas for sis and sisusb)? If not, I can
do it, but I probably won't get to it until tomorrow night...
Thanks,
Jesse
