Quoting

unironically, immediately after saying @marcan

> Currently I work at Intel’s Linux Cloud SE group, mostly creating havoc in kernel driver’s given my more than a decade of work in the graphics subsystem. I’m also co-maintaining the graphics subsystem. I also have been drm/i915 kernel maintainer for a few years, but handed that all off to a great new team.


Sima is another Rust for Linux member, right?
