[PATCH] PM: MAINTAINERS: Drop Len Brown
Posted by Krzysztof Kozlowski 9 months, 1 week ago
Emails to Len Brown bounce with:

"If it is importnat that I see your e-mail, please let me know via
instant message."

While I fully sympathize with above statement, I do not have Len's
instant message details to ask about patches and unfortunately email is
the preferred form of reviewing contributions to kernel.

Last email from Len was in September 2023.

Cc: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org>
Cc: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org>

Or entry should be changed to @kernel.org? Not sure, I assume it's Len's
intention to use that one specific email in maintainers file.

An auto-responder is different from bouncing.

Back in the day, we were required to list our @intel.com addresses in MAINTAINERS to make it clear who pays us.  I'm okay with global replacing lenb@kernel.org for len.brown@intel.com, since Rafael and others seem to have survived doing so.

Thanks, -Len

I shortened to relevant parts, but full responder is:

"If it is importnat that I see your e-mail, please let me know via
instant message.

I'm sorry, but I have to recognize the reality that I frequently receive
much more e-mail than I can possibly have time to read."

and with that last part I sympathize fully. I also have too many emails.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
