you can just go ahead and make this change (moving yourself from
maintainer of picochip to the write after approval section).
A maintainer stepping down is nothing the steering committee can,
should nor wants to approve. Giving a heads up and updating
MAINTAINERS is very much appreciated, however, as opposed to
simply disappearing.
What does this mean for the future of the Picochip port in GCC?
Daniel, are you going to pick this up actively? Anyone else? Or
should we look into deprecating the port with GCC 4.8 and possibly
removing it with the following release?
