I am looking through the grants, and I am not clear on the status for 
Masa, I thought he had contributor status, but not sure.

Either way, I would like to nominate him for Core Contributor status in 
the device driver community.

He's done a huge amount of work going way back before OpenSolaris was even 
a thought, and has put a huge amount of time into the recent putback for 
his sfe driver, and many of his other drivers benifit from that work.

I can think of no other single non-Sun member of the OpenSolaris community 
that has been around as long as Masa, or who has done the amount of work 
as he has done over the past 10+ years.

At the end of the day, being a contributor or core contributor makes a 
difference when voting comes around, and folks that are active and 
contributing deserve to vote in the community.
