Maybe both of those emails didn't come on top of each other. > Why pushing? What is your fear exactly? Just want to make the transfer of ownership official in the mainline. There's no fear I just normally wanted to send a reminder to you to pick as it might be missed inclusion. If there's a guarantee that all ack'ed patches will go automatically then I won't be sending any reminder emails in future. > > Why the new maintainers candidates have 0 and 2 contributions > in git history? > These drivers requires some maintenance and likely expanded to support future chips from Marvell. So you will not see contributions right away. So to become a maintainer one has to have prior contributions ? Kind of makes odd sense as these drivers are specific to our chip and we are changing ownership for maintaining them. I do not understand why you have an issue here? You don't like reminding then I understand. regards, Radha Mohan
