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* |

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. |
