> Andre, I would be more sympathetic to this, if more people would actually work on core recipe upgrades, but alas, it seems like it's now me alone, despite all the mail that AUH sends to supposed 'maintainers'. I have about 60 updates queued [1], and 60 more yet to come, so when I see a patch like this (not trivial to rebase, abandoned by original submitter, not possible to test), I simply drop it so that progress can be made. If you can help, please do.

Has anyone tried to contact the original submitter? If they are not
responsive then there are other Linaro folks active on the list who
could possibly help out.

AUH is a great tool but it does seem to create a division between
those in the exclusive little club of recipe maintainers and the rest
of us. If you want to reduce your workload then maybe you could remove
yourself as maintainer for some of your recipes? If that leaves
recipes without a maintainer then maybe they should default to
"community support" with AUH emails being sent to the mailing list
instead of the named individual?
