:By way of clarification, let me just say that being a developer
:doesn't mean you're a committer - the set of developers far exceeds
:the set of committers. A "developer" is someone who actually groks
:source code and understands things like make(1) enough to be
:comfortable maintaining and building binaries from their own source
:tree. A user is someone who just runs the stuff and doesn't have
:much, if any, idea as to how it's all put together.

... and a "committer" is one of the poor sods who made the mistake of
raising his hand when Jordan asked who in the crowd would like a free
T-shirt. And a core member is a committer who made the further mistake
of stepping up on stage to take Jordan up on an offer of free beer!
We'd better hope that MS never catches on!
