Hi all,
Some of you already know this, but this is a general announcement.
I will be stepping down as Linux-Next maintainer on Jan 16, 2026. Mark
Brown has generously volunteered to take up the challenge. He has
helped in the past filling in when I have been unavailable, so
hopefully knows what he is getting in to. I hope you will all treat
him with the same (or better) level of respect that I have received.
It has been a long but mostly interesting task and I hope it has been
helpful to others. It seems a long time since I read Andrew Morton's
"I have a dream" email and decided that I could help out there - little
did I know what I was heading for.
I hope to still be around the kernel community, but just not so active.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell
