Unfortunately, this is not really the process for doing so, and being in Cc of the patches isn't what a maintainer is about either. To become a maintainer (if there's already a maintainer team in place) you usually get asked by the current team to join them. This is what we did a couple of weeks ago with Jernej for example: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/[email protected]/ You would be asked to join the team based on a number of criteria, but usually that would be because: - You've been here long enough that the team knows that it can rely on you to stick around for some time; - Over that period of time, you've helped maintaining the platform already, which means that you've helped solving the current bugs and / or issues, done some new development, reviewed a significant number of patches, etc.; - You're getting quite familiar with the kernel development process; I guess eventually, we definitely want you involved, but we're not quite there yet.
