I think then the genboardscfg.py should be updated because "Odd fixer"
is a valid entry from MAINTAINERS (although not popular).
"Odd Fixes:   It has a maintainer but they don't have time to do much
other than throw the odd patch in. See below.."
The board is pretty close to being orphaned but not yet.

Krzysztof
