[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: linux-fbdev is moderated

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

While linux-fbdev is subscribers-only, non-subscribers are not plainly
rejected, but moderated, so the casual patch/comment/question comes through.

Have you considered moving this list to vger.kernel.org?
Almost no spam so the moderation is not needed.

Sounds like a good idea to me...

Anyone who disagrees?

BTW, is there an easy way to tell people the address has changed? I.e.
unsubscribing everybody from the sf.net list and letting the sf.net
list send customized messages back to posters?

That's what I did when moving from sf to vger. Any new posts to the old
list get an auto-reply with notification that the list has moved and
instructions on how to subscribe to the new list.

SF policy doesn't seem to allow you to remove the old list entirely, and
there unfortunately doesn't seem to be a way to disable subscriptions
either.
