[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Remove Bin Meng from RISC-V maintainers
Posted by Alistair Francis 2 months ago
Bin Meng has been a long time contributor and maintainer for QEMU RISC-V
and has been very beneficial to the RISC-V ecosystem.

Unfortunately his email has started to bounce so this patch is removing
them from MAINTAINERS. If in the future Bin Meng wants to return we will
happily re-add them.

Note that I'm not removing Bin Meng as a "SD (Secure Card)" maintainer.

For the record I tried to contact Bin Jan 16th, using the following emails, about the
bouncing of his gmail:

- bin.meng@windriver.com
- bmeng@tinylab.org

Still no reply as of this writing.

The better course of action seems to be just remove him for now and add him back once
the situation is solved. He can then choose to keep using the gmail or another email
of his preference.
