Hi, Daniel, Thanks for your reply. Could you please help to merge below attached patch to update the status of HAXM in QEMU? Thanks a lot.

If you no longer intend to work on QEMU bits related to HAXM, then yes, you should send a patch for the MAINTAINERS file to remove you name and mark it as "Orphan" status. We would not normally delete code from QEMU, merely because it has been orphaned. If it is still known to work then we would retain it indefinitely, unless some compelling reason arises to drop it. This gives time for any potential users to adjust their plans, and/or opportunity for other interested people to take over the maintenance role.
