Hi,
  I am stepping down as the spu backend maintainer since Sony removed
GNU/Linux (OtherOS) support from their newer PS3 firmware.  The main
reason is I will no longer have access to a machine to support the
target.  But really this is also a step backwards for free software
support from Sony.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

ChangeLog:

* MAINTAINERS (spu port): Remove me.

Yes, that is sad to see.  (I noticed that your entry in 
gcc/doc/contrib.texi does not mention SPU at all, if you
want to propose a change?)
