Andreas, Martin,

As the lead maintainers for the IBM S/390 port you may appoint any
developers you wish as co-maintainers for the port. You do not need to
ask for any permission, but you should make a public post about the new
maintainer. Stefan should also feel inclined to introduce himself/herself
as the new co-maintainer. I would be interested in knowing about Stefan's
particular interests in glibc subsystems (we are always looking for more
subsystem reviewers).

In summary: The glibc stewards have no position dictating to IBM who
should or should not be a maintainer for S/390. You have to make that
choice yourself between those interested in the health of the port.

Stefan,

Welcome! Thank you for volunteering to be a machine maintainer.

I'm very glad to have someone of your caliber working on glibc! :-)

Cheers,
Carlos.
