About 1 year ago I was asked by Arnd Bergmann if I would like to become the maintainer for the X.25 stack:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/20191209151256.2497534-4-arnd@arndb.de/#2320767
Yes, I would agree to be listed as a maintainer.
But I still think it is important that we either repair or delete the linux-x25 mailing list. The current state that the messages are going into nirvana is very unpleasant.
