I use it, but not in the way you think I should be using it. Your not getting to your will on other kernel developers is what this thread is all all about, ultimately.
I don't get to work on ext4 full time, and so every minute I put on it has to not a be a waste of time. This includes updating status messages for patches that aren't obviously not applicable, or superceded, but rather something that I might get to look at later.
