@davemgreen Thanks for the response! I should have probably linked to https://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#maintainers to clarify what the expectations for maintainers are.

The most important requirement here is really that there is some way to contact maintainers -- I think we could add something like "Arms compiler team" if there is at least a group email address (though a pingable team on GitHub would be ideal).

We should find someone who looks after target parser too. The arm abi I would add @smithp35 to but that seems to be a separate section. @nasherm mentioned he was interested recently too.

Happy to add additional people here, and we can also split this up further, no need to limit to a generic "ARM backend" category. Could do something like this:

```
#### ARM backend

David Green \
david.green at arm.com (email), [davemgreen](https://github.com/davemgreen) (GitHub)

#### ARM backend - assembler/disassembler

Oliver Stannard \
oliver.stannard at arm.com (email), [ostannard](https://github.com/ostannard) (GitHub)

#### ARM backend - ABI

Peter Smith \
peter.smith at arm.com (email), [smithp35](https://github.com/smithp35) (GitHub)
```

etc.

Related to this @asl you are currently listed as the maintainer for ARM EABI at https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/llvm/Maintainers.md#arm-eabi. Is that still up to date?
