Hi,
I am planning to post a file appended below to lkml roughly once a week.
I have added these two entries:
ALSA development <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [12 feb 2002]
Jaroslav Kysela <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [12 feb 2002]
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
ALSA patches are available at
ftp://ftp.alsa-project.org/pub/kernel-patches/*
video4linux list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [12 feb 2002]
Gerd Knorr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [12 feb 2002]

If you think they need to be changed, send me updated ones.
If you don't want them to be posted, let me know too.
lk-maintainers3.txt
===================
After recent discussion on Linux development practices I think it may be
worthy to have list of lk maintainers. Unlike one included into kernel
source, this document is meant to be monthly (weekly?) mailed to lkml
and to be modified whenever new victim wishes to be listed in it
or someone can no longer devote his time to maintainer work.
This is a draft. I picked some names and addresses and made entried for them.
If you want to be in this list, mail me your corrected entry.
Please indicate what kind of reports you wish to receive and what kind
of reports you DON'T want to see.
I want these entries to sound like "Hey, I am working on these parts of the
kernel, if you have something, send it to me not to Linus". With precise
indication of those parts and your level of involvement:
If you don't want to be in this list, mail me too - I'll remove your entry.
Note that English isn't my native language, feel free to correct any mistakes.

So, you are new to Linux kernel hacking and want to submit a kernel bug
report or a patch but don't know how to do it and _where_ to report it?
Then save this file for future reference.
Preparing bug report:
=====================
Compile problems: report GCC output and result of "grep '^CONFIG_' .config"
Oops: decode it with ksymoops
Unkillable process: Alt-SysRq-T and ksymoops relevant part
Yes it means you should have ksymoops installed and tested,
which is easy to get wrong. I've done that too often.
More info in the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
Sending bug report/patch:
=========================
* Some device drivers have active developers, try to contact them first.
* Otherwise find a subsystem maintainer to which your report pertains
and send report to his address.
* Small fixes and device driver updates are best directed to subsystem
maintainers and "small bits" integrators.
* It never hurts to CC: Linux kernel mailing list, but without specific
maintainer address in TO: field there is high probability that your
patch won't be noticed. You have been warned.
* Do not send it to all addresses at once! This will annoy lots of people
and isn't useful at all. It's a spam.
* Do NOT send small fixes to Linus, he just can't handle _everything_.
He will eventually receive it from maintainers/integrators, send it
their way.
* If your patch is something big and new, announce it on lkml and try
to attract testers. After it has been tested and discussed, you can
expect Linus to consider inclusion in mainline.
Current Linux kernel people
Note that this list is sorted in reversed date order, most recent
entries first. This means than entries at bottom can be outdated :-(
Linux kernel mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Post anything related to Linux kernel here, but nothing else :-)
Neil Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [08 feb 2002]
I am interested in any issues with the code in:
NFS server (fs/nfsd/*)
software RAID (drivers/md/{md,raid,linear}*)
or related include files.
Maksim Krasnyanskiy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [08 feb 2002]
I'm author and maintainer of the Bluetooth subsystem
and Universal TUN/TAP device driver.
These days mostly working on Bluetooth stuff.
Rik van Riel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
Send me VM related stuff, please CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Geert Uytterhoeven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
I work on the frame buffer subsystem, the m68k port (Amiga part),
and the PPC port (CHRP LongTrail part).
Unfortunately I barely have spare time to really work on these
things. My job is not Linux-related (so far :-). I can not
promise anything about my maintainership performance.
H. Peter Anvin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
i386 boot and feature code, i386 boot protocol, autofs3,
compressed iso9660 (but I'll accept all iso9660-related
changes.) kernel.org site manager; please contact me
for sponsorship-related issues.
kernel.org admins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
Kernel.org sysadmins. Contact us if you notice something breaks,
or if you want a change make sure you give us at least 1-2 weeks.
Please note that we got a lot of feature requests, a lot of
which conflict or simply aren't practical; we don't have time to
respond to all requests.
Greg KH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
I am USB and PCI Hotplug maintainer.
Trond Myklebust <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]

Console and framebuffer sybsustems.
I also play around with the input layer.
Richard Gooch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
I maintain devfs. I want people to Cc: me when reporting devfs
problems, since I don't read all messages on linux-kernel.
Send devfs related patches to me directly, rather than
bypassing me and sending to Linus/Marcelo/Alan/Dave etc.
Russell King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [06 feb 2002]
ARM architecture maintainer. Please send all ARM patches through
the patch system at http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/
New serial drivers maintainer for 2.5. Submit patches to

Andrew Morton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [05 feb 2002]
I'm receptive to any reproducible bug anywhere in the 2.4 kernel.
Specialising in ext2, ext3 and network drivers.
Not thinking about 2.5.x at this time.
Petr Vandrovec <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [05 feb 2002]
ncpfs filesystem, matrox framebuffer driver, problems related
to VMware - in all of 2.2.x, 2.4.x and 2.5.x.
Reiserfs developers list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [05 feb 2002]
Send all reiserfs-related stuff here including but not limited to bug
reports, fixes, suggestions.
Oleg Drokin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [05 feb 2002]
SA11x0 USB-ethernet and SA11x0 watchdog are mine.
Vojtech Pavlik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [05 feb 2002]
Feel free to send me bug reports and patches to input device drivers
(drivers/input/*, drivers/char/joystick/*)
I also want to receive bug reports and patches for following
USB drivers: printer, acm, catc, hid*, usbmouse, usbkbd, wacom.
All other (not in the list) USB driver changes should go to USB
maintainer (hopefully there is one listed here :-).
Also CC me if you are posting VIA IDE driver related message
(although I am not IDE subsystem maintainer).
======= These entries are suggested by lkml folks ========
David S. Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [07 feb 2002]
I am Sparc64 and networking core maintainer.
======= These ones I made myself ========

For 2.4.x, me (in theory). I don't have time for 2.5.x at the moment.
Alan Cox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
I am 2.2 maintainer.
I collect various bits and pieces for inclusion in 2.4.
You may send unmaintained driver fixes/updates to me.
Alexander Viro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
I am NOT a fs subsystem maintainer. But I won't kill
you if you send me some generic fs bug reports and (hopefully) patches.
Andre Hedrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
I am IDE guy.
Andrea Arcangeli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]

Dave Jones <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
I collect various bits and pieces for inclusion in 2.5,
espesially small and trivial ones and driver updates. Do not bother
Linus with them. I'll feed them to Linus when (and if) they
are proved to be worthy.
Eric S. Raymond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
Send kernel configuration bug reports and suggestions to me.
Also I'll be more than happy to accept help enties for kernel config
options for Configure.help.

ksymoops, kbuild, .. .. .. .. . are mine.
Linus Torvalds <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
Do not send anything to me unless it is for 2.5, well tested,
discussed on lkml and is used by significant number of people.
In general it is a bad idea to send me small fixes and driver
updates, send them to subsystem maintainers and/or
"small stuff" integrator (currently Dave Jones, see his entry)
Sorry, I can't do everything.
Marcelo Tosatti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
Do not send anything to me unless it is for 2.4 and well tested.
If you are sending me small fixes and driver updates, send
a copy to subsystem maintainers and/or "small stuff" integrator
(currently Alan Cox, see his entry).
Robert Love <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [5 feb 2002]
Preemptible kernel is mine.
