Why are we taking away the maintainership of these individual drivers
from these developers? I had no problem giving you the drivers I was
supposed to be in charge of, but I need a signed-off-by from Matthias
and Oliver for these if they want to do the same.
thanks,

I honestly thought you had just missed these entries when you removed
individual maintainership for the other usb-serial drivers with the
motivation that the developers were not around and that maintainership
for individual drivers did not make much sense anymore (as consolidation
proceeds, I read). (These two entries were also not grouped with the
others.)
Oliver and perhaps also Mathias are still around, but the option driver
is now down to about 200 LOC (including boilerplate) when not counting
the id table, while the kl5kusb105 is currently at about 400 LOC
(including boilerplate) since I converted it to use the generic
implementation a few years ago.
Oliver and Mathias, what do you think of this? Would you be willing to
sign off on this patch?
Thanks,
Johan

Fine by me. While I am indeed "still around", Option doesn't need a
maintainer any more -- the thing just works, and I do not see any need
for driver-specific changes other than additions to the ID table.
You hardly need a maintainer for that.

I've now applied this to my usb-linus branch with yours and Oliver's
signed-offs.
Thanks,
Johan
