> I've been able to b.s. my way on to the MAINTAINERS list (as a reviewer :P) so might well go for a social.kernel.org account when that lands

On one hand, very little congestion for usernames etc & an admin you know. On the other, feelings of being an impostor ;)

@ljs @axboe FWIW, although I think it was clear, I wasn't insinuating that you were - I just felt that given the "I'm just the book guy" comments you've previously made that you'd likely feel that way too.
I'm a no-one on the "opinions that matter" scale, but I certainly don't think you are an impostor.

@ljs @axboe The worst one is when you feel like you wasted people's (valuable) time.

That always feels terrible.

@ljs @axboe >LSF/MM will be one long exercise in imposter syndrome haha but it's too interesting not to go

That was my exact feeling about going to LPC, was totally worth the trip.

@ljs @axboe > fwiw I do feel that my recent patch series are not something somebody could just randomly do and I am proud of them while simultaneously and contradictoryly still feeling like a total imposter.

That's the worst part, you know it's not true but that doesn't solve anything!
