    [As is probably well known already among FreeBSD developers] it's
better for junior committers (and otherwise newbie committers) to get
into the whole userland commit arena. Most of what I see in committer
status seems to evolve from userland (optional) to kernel due to the
sexiness of kernel work vs userland work.
