At the expense of overestimating my expertise in various components
(and my understanding of the way our development model works), I
volunteer to be subsystem maintainer for benchtests (since I wrote it)
and nscd (since I spent a fair bit of time fixing netgroups bugs and
miscellaneous things). I can also be fallback for malloc since I
spent a fair bit of time in that code for work reasons in the past
(tech support debugging other people's memory corruption is fun, for
some liberal definitions of fun).
I can also back you up on libm, specifically the multiple precision
bits since I shuffled that code around a bit a couple of years ago and
also because I'm pretty sure nobody else will touch it ;)
Of course, I understand if anyone objects saying that I don't have the
expertise that I think I have.
