For ath.git there are sub-maintainers for ath5k (Multiple), ath9k (Toke),
carl9170 (Christian), and wcn36xx (Loic).
Toke has a linux-wireless patchwork account so the ath9k patches are initially
assigned to him in patchwork, and he Acks on the list and assigns the
patchwork records to me when he approves patches.
For the others the maintainers just Ack on the list, and I take them from there.
So the question is do how do you want to handle this in patchwork?
