Paul Eggert 797ee5871e Remove Maintainer: when it duplicates Author:
The convention is that a file with Author: but not Maintainer:
means the author is a maintainer, which makes it confusing
when a file lists the same person as author and maintainer.
Avoid the confusion by removing the duplicate Maintainer: line.

;;; Commentary:
;; master-mode is a minor mode which enables you to scroll another
;; buffer (the slave) without leaving your current buffer (the master).
;; It can be used by sql.el, for example: The SQL buffer is the master
;; and its SQLi buffer is the slave. This allows you to scroll the SQLi
;; buffer containing the output from the SQL buffer containing the
;; commands.
;;
;; This is how to use sql.el and master.el together: The variable
;; sql-buffer contains the slave buffer. It is a local variable in the
;; SQL buffer.
