+# The source tree is a community effort.  However, some folks go to the
+# trouble of looking after particular areas of the tree.  In return for
+# their active caretaking of the code it is polite to coordinate changes
+# with them.  This is a list of people who have expressed an interest in
+# part of the code or listed their active caretaking role so that other
+# committers can easily find somebody who is familiar with it.  The notes
+# should specify if there is a 3rd party source tree involved or other
+# things that should be kept in mind.
+# 
+# However, this is not a 'big stick', it is an offer to help and a source
+# of guidance.  It does not override the communal nature of the tree.
+# It is not a registry of 'turf' or private property.

+# ***
+# This list is prone to becoming stale quickly.  The best way to find the recent
+# maintainer of a sub-system is to check recent logs for that directory or
+# sub-system.
+# ***
+# 
+# ***
+# Maintainers are encouraged to visit:
+# https://reviews.freebsd.org/herald
+# 
+# and configure Phabricator notifications for parts of the tree which they
+# maintain.  Notifications can automatically be sent when someone proposes a
+# revision or makes a commit to the specified subtree.
