I try to focus on the area that is between the kernel community and end users, whether it's individuals or companies. While helping out with the -stable trees gives me visibility into more technical issues, being able to serve on the tab allows me to help with broader issues related to community and process. Some of my current focus is on: - How can we help our users use an up-to-date kernel: doing so has the potential to both reduce maintainer toil by having less kernels to maintain, as well as help our users take advantage of the Cambridge Promise: we'll never break them on purpose. How do we successfully turn the current too-long-term-supported kernel model into something that is a win-win for our community and users? - Hardware vulnerabilities are here to stay, how do we help our community set a higher bar for fixes coming out of embargo? - How can we play better with academic researchers? Some of the most exciting developments in the kernel world are a result of academic research (AUTOSEL for example), how do we play better with researchers in a way that doesn't cause additional strain on maintainers? I would love to keep serving the kernel community on the TAB. -- Thanks, Sasha
