+ -------- Testsuites ---------------
+
+In general patches to any of the binutils testsuites should be
+considered generic and sent to the binutils mailing list for
+approval. Patches to target specific tests are the responsibility the
+relevent port maintainer(s), and can be approved/checked in by them.
+Other testsuite patches need the approval of a blanket-write-priveleges
+person.
+
+ -------- Configure patches ----------
+
+Patches to the top level configure files (config.sub & config.guess)
+are not the domain of the binutils project and they cannot be approved
+by the binutils group. Instead they should be submitted to the config
+maintainer at:
+
+ config-patches@gnu.org
