Actually, the outreachy tutorial says not to send patches to mailing
lists, only to people (except in the case of IIO, where the maintainers
asked for patches to be sent to mailing lists as well).  The
get_maintainer command to use is shown here:

That doesn't make any sense to me.
Mailing lists _should_ be copied on patch submissions.

And the displayed output of that command-line does not match
the actual behavior.

The command-line is:
$ perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl --separator , --nokeywords --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nol -f drivers/staging/most/aim-sound/sound.c

And the output shown is:
Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>,devel@driverdev.osuosl.org,linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org

That's not what's actually output by that command-line
as it would not show the mailing list.

$ perl scripts/get_maintainer.pl --separator , --nokeywords --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nol -f drivers/staging/most/aim-sound/sound.c

The idea of outreachy is that it should be a place for people to get
started without too much criticism from the outside.  Originally, only the
outreachy mailing list received patches.  But staging maintainers were
confused to have their drivers receiving patches that they had not seen.
So we expanded it to maintainers.

That also doesn't make much sense as patches
should not be applied that have not reached
a mailing list for review.

As long as initial outreachy patches are not
applied and are just for internal review by
any outside person but the outreachy list and
are not be applied by maintainers, then perhaps
it's best if neither maintainers nor lists are
cc'd on the patches.

And the link you sent is for newbies, not for
outreachy.

The "don't cc lists" --nol use is inappropriate
there.

The patches are applied by Greg.  Greg suggested the policy of adding
maintainers but not including mailing lists.  I'll let him consider
whether the policy should be changed.

The link is part of the outreachy tutorial, which is hosted by the
kernelnewbies website.

The patches are applied by Greg.  Greg suggested the policy of adding
maintainers but not including mailing lists.  I'll let him consider
whether the policy should be changed.

The link is part of the outreachy tutorial, which is hosted by the
kernelnewbies website.

Well, I will comment on patches sent to the kernel list.

I'm not subscribed to outreachy and I don't want to be
subscribed to that list either.

I would prefer this outreachy work uses their own mailing list and 
reviews their patches first.  Then once they have everything sorted out 
they send out the patch series to the proper maintainers/mailing lists. 
That way we're not spammed with all these emails of people as they are 
learning how to format and send out proper patches.

Thanks,
  Scott

If you consider that you are getting too much outreachy mail at the
moment, just let me know what subsystem you want me to add an exception
for.

It was mostly me being annoyed because outreachy reviews are not that
good frankly.  We just were just looking at outreachy code from 2013
where they "fixed" sparse endian notations by removing the endian
conversions.  It was so obviously wrong just from reading the changelog
before you even got to the patch itself...

Outreachy emails are not really worse than normal staging patches so
I don't mind the spam.  But it would be good if driver-devel were always
CC'd on the final patch.

I know Greg feels differently.

The emails seem to mostly be coming with bcm2835-audio.

I submitted the driver to stagging, so I feel a bit responsible for
this.  

I personally don't mind e-mails like this since people have to get
started somehow, and e-mail is rather easy to ignore or delete...

Perhaps it would make sense to either update the maintainer list for
this driver or move the driver somewhere else in staging?  I was
looking at the maintainer list for bcm2835, and it already marks
vc04_services as part of the bcm2835 files.  Perhaps another mark
should be added or the driver moved under vc04_services?
