I'm not questioning their technical expertise, but is it really intended
to keep the now non-AMD people on the list of maintainers? Having
too few maintainers for a component is certainly the bigger problem
(especially when it's effectively no-one), but having too many is also
not unlikely to cause issues (the most prominent of which being that
everyone assumes one of the others will take care of a specific item).

And of course being listed here means there also ought to be
activity, so it would be nice if everyone individually could confirm
that they're still going to have sufficient time to fulfill this role.

Thanks, Jan
