Thank you for the correction.  However my point remains the same, there is no 
entry in the MAINTAINERS file for the dl2k driver.  So, now it should look 
something like this:

--- MAINTAINERS.orig    2004-12-17 16:01:37.955336376 -0600
+++ MAINTAINERS 2004-12-17 16:07:21.027181528 -0600

Also, his e-mail address in the dl2k driver needs to be updated, as the one 
currently in the driver (edward_peng@xxxxxxxxxxxx) bounces.

Thanks,
Jon
