            Patch https://review.whamcloud.com/33104 ("LU-11329 utils: add get_maintainer.pl script") added the ability to find maintainers. It is out of LU scope to notify them.

            The upstream kernel has a get_maintainer.pl script that looks in the MAINTAINERS file and automatically extracts the email addresses of the maintainers based on the "F:" label(s) for each subsystem. It wouldn't be terrible if we used the same mechanism.

            One suggestion for specifying 'areas of specific interest'.

            Matching regular expressions with inclusions - and exclusions. e.g.:

            andreas.dilger@intel.com: libcfs/* !lnet/* lustre/* !lustre/llite/vvp* !lustre/llite/lcommon* !lustre/lov/lovsub*
