If we add it to the MAINTAINERS file (with makes perfect sense to me),
I would like to have a R: entry there, in order to be notified when
people propose changes to it. My personal understanding is that it may 
have legal value under the legislation of the Country I live, and I'd
like to understand changes there that might affect my workflow.

Thanks,
