[PATCH 4/4] MAINTAINERS: Downgrade the functional testing section to "Odd Fixes"
Posted by Thomas Huth 3 weeks, 3 days ago
From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

I won't have that much time for QEMU anymore in the future, so downgrade
the status of the "functional testing framework" section to "Odd Fixes"
to avoid wrong expectations. While we're at it, also switch to my other
e-mail address here that I'm already using for the other sections where
I am still listed as maintainer / reviewer.

Thanks for the dedication you put into the test frameworks and their transition. Sad to see you leave and hopes to still see you around in the retro computing camp here in QEMU.

Best regards,
Bernhard

FYI, this section only applies to the core framework itself. The
individual test files are all distributed across the arch target
maintainers.

I was in two minds as to whether to declare myself a replacement
maintainer for Thomas. I'll try to collect & review any patches
to the core framework in the absence of anyone else wanting to
step up, but I didn't want to guarantee I'd be able to spend
regular time on it as a formal maintainer assignment.

Good to know, thanks for the update!
