[edk2-devel] [Patch V2 0/3] Add GitHub IDs to Maintainers.txt

[Michael D Kinney]

Hi Sean,

Maintainers.txt is a standard file format defined by TianoCore.  Format is in file header.
The intent is for the file format to be consumable by tools and developers.

I reviewed CODEOWERS feature.  It has limitations that do not match the EDK II development process.

Mike
