I consider it hard to choose the right set of recipents for areas where
I don't usually patch. Addressing too much people is bad as is addressing
too less. And what is considered right differs per
subsystem/maintainer/contributor. I don't claim it's impossible to find
out the right person, but for a patch stack with more than say a dozen
patches distributed all over the source tree it's the easiest to check
scripts/get_maintainer.pl and select what looks reasonable from its
output. So having the maintainer listed is definitly nice because at
least for me it increases the chance considerably to pick him for cc.

Best regards
Uwe
