Hi Shayenne, There's an easy trick for this: the kernel tree has a script that can help you find both the relevant maintainers, and their development tree for each file in the kernel. Simply run: ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --scm -f [filename] For example, in this case, you'd run: $ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --scm -f drivers/staging/vboxvideo/vbox_main.c Greg Kroah-Hartman (supporter:STAGING SUBSYSTEM,commit_signer:10/10=100%) Hans de Goede (commit_signer:7/10=70%,authored:6/10=60%,added_lines:31/37=84%,removed_lines:153/159=96%) Fabio Rafael da Rosa (commit_signer:1/10=10%,authored:1/10=10%) Alexander Kapshuk (commit_signer:1/10=10%,authored:1/10=10%) Nicholas Mc Guire (commit_signer:1/10=10%) Thomas Zimmermann (authored:1/10=10%,added_lines:2/37=5%) Daniel Junho (authored:1/10=10%,added_lines:2/37=5%) devel@driverdev.osuosl.org (open list:STAGING SUBSYSTEM) linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list) git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git The list of people and mailing lists are the ones that should be the recipients of your patch, and the last line is the git tree on which the patch should be based on. -- Thanks, Sasha
