E.g. I've often chimed in on changes to do withn how/whether something

anyway, but I wouldn't mind being explicit about that. Ditto for people
we consider the authority on certain subsystems, such as (this may not
be any one person currently), refs, the index, SHA1<->SHA256 interop
etc.
I have limited time for the list, but I also tend to pop in on certain
topics: the SHA-256 transition, commit and tag signing, authentication,
translations, and so on. However, outside of the signing code, a lot of
that isn't centralized in one place.
I also wouldn't be able to commit to signing up for any subsystem in a
MAINTAINERS file, but I'm happy to be CC'd if folks think I'm
knowledgeable about something or if it's an area they think my opinion
would be valuable.
I can't speak for others, though, so I don't know if a MAINTAINERS-style
approach would be valuable for them.
