[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Remove Shannon Nelson from MAINTAINERS file

Posted by Shannon Nelson 3 months, 3 weeks ago

Brett Creeley is taking ownership of AMD/Pensando drivers while I wander
off into the sunset with my retirement this month.  I'll still keep an
eye out on a few topics for awhile, and maybe do some free-lance work in
the future.

Meanwhile, thank you all for the fun and support and the many learning
opportunities :-).

Special thanks go to DaveM for merging my first patch long ago, the big
ionic patchset a few years ago, and my last patchset last week.

Cheers,
sln

Shannon,

Congrats on a well earned/deserved milestone. I wish you all the best in 
wandering off into the sunset. Your guidance over the years has been 
invaluable and I hope to continue maintaining our drivers with a 
fraction of the patience and grace you have shown.

I know I already signed off, but I figured it makes sense to do it here 
as well...

Didn't you think of moving yourself to CREDITS like a true veteran?

Thanks, I've had one or two other folks suggest the same ... I wasn't 
sure about taking such a step, but perhaps I'll send something out for 
that.  I realized that I also need to update the .mailmap file.

Cheers,

Nice symmetry.

Enjoy whatever comes next and thanks for all your contributions.
It's always been a pleasure.
