-List of maintainers for pldm
-===============================
-
-How to use this list:
-    Find the most specific section entry (described below) that matches where
-    your change lives and add the reviewers (R) and maintainers (M) as
-    reviewers. You can use the same method to track down who knows a particular
-    code base best.
-
-    Your change/query may span multiple entries; that is okay.
-
-    If you do not find an entry that describes your request at all, someone
-    forgot to update this list; please at least file an issue or send an email
-    to a maintainer, but preferably you should just update this document.
-
-Description of section entries:
-
-    Section entries are structured according to the following scheme:
-
-    X:  NAME <EMAIL_USERNAME@DOMAIN> <DISCORD_USERNAME!>
-    X:  ...
-    .
-    .
-    .
-
-    Where REPO_NAME is the name of the repository within the OpenBMC GitHub
-    organization; FILE_PATH is a file path within the repository, possibly with
-    wildcards; X is a tag of one of the following types:
-
-    M:  Denotes maintainer; has fields NAME <EMAIL_USERNAME@DOMAIN> <DISCORD_USERNAME!>;
-        if omitted from an entry, assume one of the maintainers from the
-        MAINTAINERS entry.
-    R:  Denotes reviewer; has fields NAME <EMAIL_USERNAME@DOMAIN> <DISCORD_USERNAME!>;
-        these people are to be added as reviewers for a change matching the repo
-        path.
-    F:  Denotes forked from an external repository; has fields URL.
-
-    Line comments are to be denoted "# SOME COMMENT" (typical shell style
-    comment); it is important to follow the correct syntax and semantics as we
-    may want to use automated tools with this file in the future.
-
-    A change cannot be added to an OpenBMC repository without a MAINTAINER's
-    approval; thus, a MAINTAINER should always be listed as a reviewer.
-
-Change approval rules:
-
-    - Patches must be be approved (+1) by at least 1 maintainer.
-    - Patches must not have an unresolved -1 vote by any maintainer.
-    - Patches should have all maintainers added for visibility.
-    - Patches should include unit tests where possible.
-    - Feel free to ping on DISCORD about patches that look good but have not
-      received +2
-    - Wait 24 hours before doing the final submit after doing a +2 on a
-      commit and any maintainer can do the final submit
-
-Design approval rules:
-
-    - Design discussions should be carried out via email with, at minimum,
-      all maintainers on the thread.  It's encouraged to include the
-      OpenBMC mailing list in the thread as well.
