No problem, we'll keep in touch.

I'd prefer to keep this change for later, with the patch cleaning its 
use in the codebase (not that trivial because we need to alias the 
machine name to keep backward compatibility).

Aleksandar, can you stay as co-maintainer?

The patch would be:

-- 8< --
    Fulong 2E
+M: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>
  M: Aleksandar Markovic <amarkovic@wavecomp.com>
-R: Aleksandar Rikalo <aleksandar.rikalo@rt-rk.com>
    S: Odd Fixes
    F: hw/mips/mips_fulong2e.c
    F: hw/isa/vt82c686.c
---

Either this way, or if you prefer to be listed with a R-tag:
