A quick check showed patches that did what mine did, and oddly MAINTAINERS has no section for dropping maintainership that I could quickly find. If this is what others prefer I'm happy to resubmit?

I imagine I will continue to send small numbers of libertas patches as and when new issues are found on OLPC XO, but I wouldn't be able to make any other form of commitment, certainly not with other hardware. I am already overstretched with my roles. So I don't really see myself as a maintainer candidate.
