OK, sounds good to me.

Thanks!  Should you want to make it more official, feel free to send a
patch to update the "Maintainer" field with your name and email address.

BTW, we are trying to push to convert code to use the new lexical scope.
If you find some time, it would be great if you could test the attached
patch that enables it for mixal-mode.el.  (It would be hard for me to
verify that it works since I don't use GNU MDK myself.)
