At least three out of the eight candidates nominated by the nominating
committee are (to the best of my knowledge) sysadmins: Lois Bennett,
Tina Darmohray, and me (Adam Moskowitz). That's 37.5 percent! Not bad,
given that the primary focus of USENIX is "Advanced Computing Systems"
and not "system administration." Also, Peter Honeyman has published
several LISA papers.
