I mean: replacing the MAINTAINERS file with a simple link to the wiki
page.

Looking at the wiki page, I just noticed that sugar-toolkit-gtk3 is
maintained by you and Simon, which makes it different from all the other
modules.

Presently it doesn't really matter, but when the rest of glucose
switches to gtk3, this arrangement would bring us back to the time when
getting any non-trivial change merged required seeking the combined
approval of multiple module maintainers.

So I'd propose that we continue to have glucose share the same set
maintainers, either by making Silbe co-maintain sugar-toolkit-gtk3, or
by adding you to the other glucose modules. I think it's important to
keep our review process smooth and avoid frustrating our contributors
with patches stuck in a half-approved state.
