Subject: [PATCH] Note subscribers only lists for input subsystem

According to Dmitry in <http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/17/280>, the input
list is subscribers only. I'm assuming here that both are but a
confirmation would be nice... :)

From: Cal Peake <[email protected]>

Annotate the MAINTAINERS file to reflect the subscribers only nature of
the input mailing lists.

Actually I'd rather have them open, let's see if Vojtech could change
that... The main problem is that not only input lists accept posts
from subscribers only but they silently drop everything else. Maybe
dropping only HTML posts would be a decent compromise.

Ok. I'll take a look at it.
