Right.

I was thinking that they would go through the clk maintainers, hence Haojian's
ack. If they should go through arm-soc, they would need Mike's ack.

OK, I can do it with Mike's ack first.

No problem, it's not as if this was a business critical platform :)

Sure, I'll send a patch to add myself to the MAINTAINERS of pxa. Would be great
if Daniel stepped in too, as my pxa3xx knowledge is poor.

As to removing Russell and Eric, we should get their opinion, it's as they want,
I can send it in the maintainers patch if they agree.

Cheers.
