On that note, it would be helpful for folks to step up and take on maintainership of certain parts of the code. We often get patches for programmer X or mainboard Y, but without intimate knowledge of X or Y it can be difficult to review patches, and testing is often not possible due to the wide variety of hardware supported. Maybe we should add a MAINTAINERS file or a wiki where people can volunteer based on their area of expertise - General infrastructure, Bus Pirate, Arduino, Intel platforms, Thinkpad issues, BSD/DOS/Windows support, etc. That will help triage patches and issues and get the right people looking at them.
