FYI: Some new maintainers

The gcj project had several people with write access of various
kinds. We more or less followed the gcc model of blanket write
access, maintainerships, and write-after-approval.
Actually our process was set up so that people who wrote pieces of
code, or hacked a certain piece of code often enough, simply assumed
write-without-asking privilege for that code. There's no clear way to
encode this breakdown into the MAINTAINERS file, so I'm just going to
list the gcj hackers as "write after approval".
I'm setting things up so that Java hackers have the same privileges
they had before the repository merge. I trust this won't be
controversial.
For reference, here are the people who had gcj access but do not yet
have gcc access:
krab Kresten Krab Thorup
Wrote the Java bytecode interpreter in libgcj
brads Bradley Schatz
Did some web work for gcj
hboehm Hans Boehm
Wrote and continues to maintain the garbage collector
mark Mark Wielaard
Works on various things, mostly relating to merging code with
Classpath
rolfwr Rolf Rasmussen
Mostly works on AWT and Java2D
