lkml and Linus gained a CoC, and it's serious this time. Which means my no 1 reason for declining to officially step up as drm maintainer is gone, and I didn't find any new good excuse.
I chatted with a few people in private already, and the biggest concern is that I mislay my community hat and start running around with my intel hat only. Or some other convenient abuse of trust.
That's why this patch doesn't just need a lot of acks that mean "yeah seems fine to me", but a lot of acks that mean "yeah we'll tell you when you're over the line and usurp you from that comfy chair if you don't get it". Which I think we've been done a fairly good job here at dri-devel in general, but better to be clear.
Rough idea is that I'll do this for maybe 2-3 years, helping Dave figure out a group model for drm overall. And getting the tooling and infrastructure for that off the ground. Then step down again because some other shiny thing that needs chasing. Of course as plans tend to do, this one will probably pan out a bit different in reality.

I have tons of non-Intel hardware. Little-promoted fact, but I prototyped the original atomic helpers on some hacked up exynos.

That's why this patch doesn't just need a lot of acks that mean "yeah seems fine to me", but a lot of acks that mean "yeah we'll tell you when you're over the line and usurp you from that comfy chair if you don't get it".
Hang on, I didn't get a comfy chair when I signed up for drm-misc! I guess that's only for top-level maintainers, huh? ;-)
Which I think we've been done a fairly good job here at dri-devel in general, but better to be clear.
Completely agree, I have 0 doubts.

Rough idea is that I'll do this for maybe 2-3 years, helping Dave figure out a group model for drm overall. And getting the tooling and infrastructure for that off the ground. Then step down again because some other shiny thing that needs chasing. Of course as plans tend to do, this one will probably pan out a bit different in reality.

Daniel, thanks for all the work you've done, experiments with maintainer ship, atomic push, and community fostering are things I don't think I could have ever made happen.
Personally I've wanted to apply this patch for a few years, thanks for taking the final leap, patch applied to drm-fixes.
As for me, I'm not retiring, I'm not even sure how we are going to rebalance things, with all the misc tools and patchwork I've got a pretty decent workflow now that isn't based on me, but I'd like to let Daniel push forward into gitlab and other areas and maybe I'll just keep shovelling along with the legacy until he's ready :-)
Dave.
