Why don't we just add me as the maintainer. I can set up a script to
compile and boot it once a week on a few common configs. I think I
already have that for testing the x86_64 drivers/misc/sgi-xp bits so it
should be no significant increase in work.

I will work today on getting the linux-altix@xxxxxxx mailing list working
again if it is not already and then ensuring I am on that list.

Thanks,
Robin
