But I don't have the resources and infrastructure to do that. And Debian doesn't provide resources to non-DDs afaik. And on top of that Debian has a "way too lengthy and time consuming" process for becoming a Debian Developer (Infact most DDs want the NM process to be more rigorous) I agree that it's a huge effort to have everything up-to-date in the kernel. But given the roadmap Debian has, to support ports like GNU/Hurd, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Debian will end up supporting everything where nothing would be usable. The only thing usable would be distributions derived from Debian. And I doubt if Debian has developer growth at the same pace.
