@Andrew: You just outlined what's in the wiki and what the add_maintainers tool does.

We should chat about the Cc: vs CC: 
* I may need to fix the tool as it uses CC: when used with some options

@Pawel: I submitted 
https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-08/msg01575.html <https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-08/msg01575.html>
https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-08/msg01581.html <https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2019-08/msg01581.html>
which once applied ensures that the tools can be used on the live patch build tools

I also added https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Submitting_Xen_Project_Patches#Using_add_maintainers.pl_.28or_get_maintainer.pl.29_from_outside_of_xen.git <https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Submitting_Xen_Project_Patches#Using_add_maintainers.pl_.28or_get_maintainer.pl.29_from_outside_of_xen.git>
