An umbrella to start with. :o)

While the (highly variable amount of) kernel work I do is intellectually
rewarding at times, it's not exactly the kind of cool or important thing
that deserves to be talked about in a yearly meetup.

As a hobbyist, I have less time than most pro and must cope with
whatever brain juice remains after the paid work. It doesn't make me
an endangered species urging for positive discrimination.

Things may be quite different for hobbyists with cool projects. I'm
curious to know if such a thing exists and if he/she does not turn
into something else anyway.
