Hello,

I just wrote to Alessandro in order to have some suggestions about a
misc device I wish to propose to this list, but he told me that he
wants leave his maintanership.

So which is the person should I send my requests about misc devices?

He also asked to me to propose to this list a "patch" to remove him
from the MAINTANERS file... if so the new entry should be:

MOUSE AND MISC DEVICES [GENERAL]
L: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
S: Maintained

Is taht correct?

I'd say that the entry should just be for MISC DEVICES.
MOUSE is covered/handled by INPUT DRIVERS.

The L: and S: look OK to me.

Please send a patch to linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and
to akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx .

Thanks,
