[PATCH] sim/MAINTAINERS clarifications.

[PATCH] sim/MAINTAINERS clarifications.

[cgd]

I created the following question after starting to ask the question:

  So, the sim MAINTAINERS file lists maintainers for 'common'.

  Are they assumed to have mastership of sim/igen as well?

  (I'm just wondering who the right person I should pester about a
  quick approval for
  http://sources.redhat.com/ml/gdb-patches/2002-03/msg00055.html,
  since the common part of that is trivial and seems obviously useful,
  to me.  8-)


Assuming the answer to that is "yes," and that the rest of the changes
below are desirable, how about this patch to sim/MAINTAINERS?

(the result is less greppable, but more in the style of the GDB
MAINTAINERS file.)


thanks,

chris

I think igen maintenance is better left to the people that need to hack 
on it - mips (ppc if I finished hacking it), mn10300, v850, d10v, d30v, 
??? maintainers.

Sorry, missed it.  I've been assuming that you didn't need approval in 
src/sim.

``#''? Read man page.  Ah, cute.

The format string should as far as possible look, smell, and even taste 
like fprintf() formats so yes.

actually, looks like currently only:

	mips
	mn10300
	tic80
	v850
	d30v		(mmm, preprocessed by m4!)

use igen.  (i.e., from your list, _not_ d10v.  It uses gencode on
d10v-opc.c, it seems.)

So, anyway, how about the change below?

(If you're prefer to keep things "loose" and relatively un-specified
as they are now, that's fine w/ me, but i figure, hey if this is
the hoped-for policy why not document?  8-)

BTW, everything on the internet (especially policy stuff) takes at least 
a week.  Moving quickly on this isn't possible.
