Not _all_ of us lose our voice when yelled at by Linus's lieutenants.
Some of us just post updates to the same darn patch series for 5 years
(yes really; my perl removal series started in 2008 and was applied
earlier this year), on the theory it's useful to the people actually
applying it to their own trees (at one point, gentoo), and that someday
the stars might be right and cthulu will arise from the deep and accept
the patch series into his tree. (Or in my case, Andrew Morton.)

Hoping initmpfs has an easier time of it, it's already being used in
supercomputers.
