This is something which I actually agree with.  When I asked for a
single, central database I was actually more restrictive than I
intended.  What I had (and have) in mind is that all relevant pieces
of information for a specific board (i. e. one "entry" in the
database) should be in a single location.  Whether this is a single
central file or a single board specific file (like a defconfig) is not 
really relevant to me.

[I have to admit that I find the MAINTAINERS format pretty unlucky; it
is difficult to write and to process.]

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
