As per our consensus rules, anyone testing on a platform and with commit 
access can commit ulps updates for that platform (the test machinery will 
automatically prevent excessively large values being set in ulps files and 
ignore such values if they are set there).  One would generally expect 
architecture maintainers to do so at during the release freeze (before 
doing the test run for which they report results), but it doesn't have to 
be the architecture maintainers (and likewise, other people can report 
results on the per-release wiki page if they wish).

As recently noted, the "Not currently functional without patches." for 
hppa needs removing in README, as it's no longer true.
