As far as I know, none of these people have
previously submitted a single patch.

None of them were cc'd neither. (now cc'd)

I think a better way to do this sort of
change is to have the people becoming
MAINTAINERS submit the patches and the
person departing ack it, or simply to
remove yourself and let other people add
themselves later.
