The first line of the MAINTAINERS file are:
"
The intention of this file is to provide a set of names that we can rely on
for helping in patch reviews and questions.
"

Unfortunately, some maintainers do not endorse their role for questions
asked on the mailing list.
Hope making it clear in the contribution guide will enforce more
responsive maintainer participation.

 * Review patches for the component or delegate the review.
   The review should be done, ideally, within 1 week of submission to the mailing list.
 * Add an ``acked-by`` to patches, or patchsets, that are ready for committing to a tree.
+* Reply to questions asked about the component.
 
 Component maintainers can be added or removed by submitting a patch to the ``MAINTAINERS`` file.
 Maintainers should have demonstrated a reasonable level of contributions or reviews to the component area.
