I would not classify much of this work as maintenance. The semaphores is pthreads work -- nobody has touched threads in years from what I can see. Not trivial. Bringing in llvm/clang/libc++ is definitely not trivial. It a huge, complex task. the new USB has never reached production so that's not maintenance either. OSS/ALSA - When was the last time somebody in dragonfly touched audio? Sure there's room for "crazy" but this list is plenty challenging.
