Otherwise I don't agree with the change. MAINTAINERS states: M: Mail patches to: FullName L: Mailing list that is relevant to this area In the case of dm-devel, it's not merely a "relevant" list, but it is essential for us: patches to dm must be sent to the list for patchwork to collect. I shall also add Mike Snitzer as a joint maintainer. And did you notice this bit with uapi? F: include/linux/dm-*.h Alasdair
