[edk2-devel] [PATCH] Maintainers.txt: Update reviewer email address

[Michael D Kinney]

Hi Maciej,

Once a patch review is complete that updates Maintainers.txt
with a new maintainer, one of the existing maintainers should
submit a PR to get Maintainer.txt updated in edk2/master.  In
the corner case where none of the existing maintainers are 
available to submit this PR, one of the stewards can support 
this PR.

At that point, the new maintainer needs to be added to the
TianoCore EDK II Maintainers Team so the new maintainer has 
The ability to set the 'push' label on PRs they want merged
into edk2/master.

The new maintainer should send an email to the mailing list 
requesting membership in the TianoCore EDK II Maintainers team.

Thanks,

Mike
