For the record I was once paid to make some minor changes to the Linux
kernel for Yellow Dog Linux long ago. So at least one of us Devuan
developers barely counts as a kernel developer.

If you have ever had one of the Playstation 3's they sold with Linux pre
installed, you would see one of my efforts as the Linux side started up.

I still own the very first PS3 ever sold in the world with Linux pre
installed. If there had not been a big snow storm delaying delivery, it
also would have been the first PS3 in Australia, but IBM beat me to that.
I managed second or third one in Australia.

I don't have time to take on another project though.
