[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: remove Adam Fritzler, update his email address in other sources

Adam isn't a maintainer anymore.
His old email address bounces.
Update to new email address.

This is fairly pointless - it'll just break again when Adam moves again.

Every problem can be solved with another layer of...

Please: just replace all instances with plain old "Adam Fritzler" and then
ensure that the lookup key "Adam Fritzler" has an accurate (and
non-duplicated anywhere else!) entry in MAINTAINERS or CREDITS or whatever.

btw, I cheerfully skipped all your spelling-fixes patches. Some will have
stuck via subsystem maintainers but I have a secret "no spelling fixes
unless they're end-user-visible" policy. That means I'll take spelling
fixes only if they're in printks or in Documentation/*. This is a little
defense mechanism to avoid getting buried in micropatches.

I'd suggest that you find out if Adrian is still running the trivial tree
and if so, patchbomb him.

Sure. See new patch below

No worries. I was just avoiding doing useful stuff.

I think there were 15-20 printks in that lot.
Do you want them separately?

OK. Adrian? Do you want the spelling fixes?

Back to Adam Fritzler...

I do.

Simply Cc trivial [at] kernel for trivial patches and they might
magically appear in Linus' tree during the next merge window. :)

That's pretty unfriendly. Presumably the linux-tr list is still active
and would still help people with that driver. So how about:

TMS380 TOKEN-RING NETWORK DRIVER
-P: Adam Fritzler
-M: mid [at] auk
L: linux-tr [at] linuxtr
?W:?
-S: Maintained
+S: Orphan

(Dunno what to do about W:)

The linux-tr list is at least broken, more likely dead.
Subscribe requests to majordomo [at] linuxtr bounce.

There is a known problem with the mailing list at the moment. If you

What was the rationale for removing Adam from MAINTAINERS?

That should have been in the non-existent changelog. Please always reissue
a complete changelog when resending any patch.

hm, linux-tr.net seems to be defunct. So I guess that orphaning TMS380 is
appropriate, if Adam has left us. Has he?

I don't know that specific answer, but in terms of general policy...

I wouldn't apply this patch until they have been in
Documentation/people-removal-schedule.txt for a year or so ;-) More
seriously, its not like MAINTAINERS is a mission critical correctness
target -- so I think we can do a better job than just yanking people
from the file like this.

I sent him a patch to that address and it bounced.
I sent him a note asking if he was still a maintainer to
his new address and he replied:
