Yeah that would be nice.

I did have a look at them, but not as close as I wanted to, yet ;(
Since they are making some major changes to the tpm subsystem I did not want to 
hurry them in for 3.12, but give them a rather good testing on my machines as 
well. (I know you did test them ;)

Unfortunately due to a lot of traveling that was not possible for me.
So please repost them, so we can make them ready for 3.13.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Rajiv,

Good to see you again.

Thanks for the offer - I think I can handle the maintenance effort itself,
HOWEVER I  would really like to see you sticking around here as a reviewer, 
due to your experience,
especially for the stuff I'm submitting.

The more reviewers the merrier ;)

Whether you want to be listed in MAINTAINERS or the subscription to tpmdd is 
enough is up to you.
Please tell me what you think, then I'd clean up the MAINTAINERS entry for the 
tpm subsystem ;)

Thanks,
Peter

FYI I'm one of the two people who took over co-maintaining TrouSerS
after Kent stepped down.  I am also reviewing tpm device driver patches
that go by, but I am glad others more knowledgeable about those drivers
such as you are there to be the maintainers.  Thanks for stepping up.

Rajiv has moved on to a different company.  Haven't heard from him for a
while.

I agree with you here, this was also the reason I took it over when Kent 
stepped down and noone else stepped in of the current maintainers, leaving the 
subsystem more or less unmaintained.

About the removing the other maintainers: 
I already thought about that too and contacted the "maintainers" - 
I got a response back from Ashley (as its part of her job to look after the 
subsystem) and Marcel, stating that they are atleast looking at the patches.
No response from Rajiv, Leonidas or Sirrix :(


Thanks,
Peter
