Hello everyone,

As the email stated I will be taking over the maintainership of OProfile.  I will be reviewing patches and merging them into the upstream repository with an approximately annual release of the software.

I would like to thank Maynard for all the work he as lead maintainer of OProfile. Maynard, you have contributed a lot to OProfile.

-Will
