better understanding of recruiting need for new maintainers. Changes to list of

Contributors who are interested in becoming a maintainer, if performing relevant
responsibilities, should discuss their interest with the existing maintainers. New

Life priorities, interests, and passions can change. Maintainers can retire and
be removed from [maintainers](./MAINTAINERS) list and added to
[emeritus](./README.md#etcd-emeritus-maintainers). If a maintainer needs to step
down, they should inform other maintainers, if possible, help find someone to
pick up the related work. At the very least, ensure the related work can be
continued. Afterward they can remove themselves from list of existing maintainers.

they can be removed by other maintainers. In that case inactive maintainer will
be first notified via an email. If situation doesn't improve, they will be
removed. If an emeritus maintainer wants to regain an active role, they can do
so by renewing their contributions. Active maintainers should welcome such a move.
Retiring of other maintainers or regaining the status should require approval
of at least two active maintainers.
