Just to play devil's advocate (Satan and I go way back), what about people
who are established PHP developers but who generally don't participate in
the development/discussion of PHP core?  An argument could be made that, as

That's not my position, mind you; I'm just throwing that premise out there
to see if it holds up.  =)
