Hi Florian,

        As you seems very busy I'd like to propose the help you to handle the
        fbdev subsystem to easier the rich of the fbdev patch to Linus

        As I'm working on fbdev on at91 and others and already Co-Maintain the
        at91 mach on ARM

        And if you are not willing to continue I could take over

Yeah, it would be great if you could help, at the moment I get barely
any sleep, let alone that I could keep up with the majority of mail I
get. I'll let you decide whether you want to be sole maintainer or not.

For any bigger subsystems, it's good practice to have two maintainers,
even if one of them does all the work. I think it makes sense to have
Jean-Christophe as the primary maintainer and owner of the git tree,
but it may also be good to have you or Tomi listed as a second maintainer
for times when Jean-Christophe isn't available.

Hi Arnd,

I agree with Arnd's opinion.
It looks good to have Florian or Tomi listed as a second maintainer.

Someone send a patch!
