Well, at best we have 3 "maintainers" involved in MTD (David, Artem,
and me), but David is often quite unresponsive unless you yell, and
Artem has more or less left non-UBI/UBIFS stuff to me. I personally
have little knowledge of JFFS2, and I have seen a fair number of
dubious JFFS2 patches from people with automated tools and no testing.
So I'm understandably cautious to merge them. But if you have properly
tested (or at least reviewed) patches sitting around, I can take a
look at them and merge them. Are you referring to the top 4 here?
