Agreed, most of them are already acting as Maintainers anyway, which is the 
usual requirement for them to become Maintainers anyway. At the very least, I 
can directly confirm Friedemann, Andrew, Tor Arne, Bogdan and Björn have done 
that work, as I've sent a few patches their way for those platforms and they 
were readily acted on. Moreover, I know Morten, Jørgen and Andy personally, 
and a quick git log shows they've been active. (Wayland being the easiest, 
since it's a separate repo: of the last 200 commits, 140 were reviewed by 
Andy)

Therefore, I give my Maintainer +1 on all nominations.
