Hi Joe,

The address "support.opensource@diasemi.com" works. Thanks.

The support.opensource e-mail address is an alias contact group that sends to all kernel developers
at Dialog Semiconductor.

There is no way for that address to submit content to the kernel, we do that individually through
our personal e-mail (for accountability reasons), but when that address is used externally to contact
Dialog about our drivers, it gets translated and sent to all current Dialog kernel driver developers.

That method has advantages for us: all developers gets the message; it ensures somebody will pick up
the query; we can alter the internal developer inbox addresses and alter the list of developers internally .. 
and we only need a single e-mail address in the kernel MAINTAINERS list.

Regards,
Steve
