Gary has not been with Broadcom for some time now, replace his address
with the internal mailing-list used for other entries.

Since this is an old driver, not sure who could step up as a maintainer
for b44?

Without an actual maintainer, this should really be
orphan and not supported.
And the M: bcm-kernel-feedback-list@ should be L:
BCM4401 NICs are essentially from 2002.
Does anyone really use these any longer with a
current distribution or kernel version?

This NIC is also embedded inside BCM47xx/BCM53xx which is still
getting active support from Rafal and Hauke.

Olof indicated otherwise, so who is right here?

I have worked on this NIC more than 10 years ago. Last time I
checked, I don't have this NIC anymore after moving offices several
times.
I don't mind being the maintainer, if no one else more suitable and
have access to hardware wants to do it.

This hasn't been applied to -next, and I looked at the
existing L: entries.
No worries here either if it's an exploder and not a mailing list.
Pity it's not called something like bcm-linux-drivers@broadcom.com
if it's really an exploder.

Should I resubmit with your name as a maintainer or do you want to do it?

I will submit the patch in a day or 2. Unless of course someone wants
to be the maintainer instead.
