Ai, yet an other patch merged for a 3.8 feature without reference to a
bug that tracks feature progress :-/ I wonder how people expect me to
keep track of all the 3.8 features... But, thats not what your email is
about.

I am not sure how many maintainers we need for our test framework. It is
more important that the changes get reviewed quickly and constructive
feedback is given on the change. So, I guess I'd prefer to wait with
adding more maintainers, and see how many changes add difstaf
tests-cases (hopyfully lots!).

Developers (which includes QE people!) can configure their Gerrit
account to send emails for changes affecting components of their
interest. Engineers that want to become maintainers of a component
should start by setting this up. A description of it has been included
in the Guidelines for Maintainers.

Once an aspiring maintainer thinks that he/she has enough experience in
reviewing changes and guiding improvements, a request (should also
include a personal introduction) can be sent to the maintainers list [3]
where we'll review+approve the request.

Thanks,
Niels
