makes it look like MI is being made obsolete. Should the new MAINTAINERS

Acknowledgement is already given in the section of GDB/MI and this also
includes Stan Shebs. It makes sense to move it though.
Anyway thanks for the work that you have done.

Yes. But please wait with committing it until tomorrow, as I'm in the
middle of many changes in the manual.
Thanks.

I would like to let you all know how very much appreciated your work on
GDB/MI is. Without you all, there would be nothing here for the rest of
us to work on.
Andrew, although I've made my comments in the past about patch review time,
I still greatly appreciate the effort put into GDB/MI and the quality of
the patch review that was done, as time permitted.
With that said, I think there is something to say about the future of
MI. The text you wrote above can be taken in several ways. In
particular, what role do you or any other GDB maintainers plan to take
over the next several years in regards to GDB/MI?
I have several goals in mind for GDB/MI. I've posted several patches to
the list to modify the testsuite to do syntax checking. Is anyone going
to be able to allow this patch into GDB? or am I up the stream without a
maintainer?
Thanks,
Bob Rossi

Without a more specific maintainer, any global maintainer can review
MI patches.
