Have you guys thought of group maintainering? Single point of failure
trees freak me out a bit, it tends to build silos pretty hard. Simplest
path is to just toss it all into drm-misc, but at least have one tree for
your driver. Building new single maintainer silos after I've run around
for years collecting them all is rather meh.
