Subject: [PATCH] toshiba-acpi: remove MAINTAINERS entry

The web server at memebeam.org refuses connections and the domain no
longer has an MX entry, so apparently John Belmonte has vanished.

archive.org shows it's been that way for over a year, but turned up
another email address, let's see if that works.

nope, clearly not, the MX for that is memebeam.org.

John sent me an email in January from this address but I never got a
reply to my reply. I know you're follow up said that this address went
back to the old missing MX but the incident does at least prove it
was working a couple of months ago. (Or the maybe he doesn't know the
MX is wrong and he can only send :-)

Hmm, it looks like membeam.org is just missing an MX entry, but accepts
mail, when it's up, to its A entry. That's just a DNS bug then maybe?

Hello,

Deliveries to [email protected] work fine as far as I can tell.

I'm not much opposed to marking this driver orphaned. I haven't used
a Toshiba laptop in four years or so, and disagree with the recent
additions of bluetooth and wireless control to the driver.

I'll take that as your Ack, John, and so I'll apply the patch.
