Essentially every contributor gets one; it doesn't mean anything
specific. You can check the account system if you want and see what
groups any account belongs to, if you like. I don't use my Fedora
address, but I do have one, and if you'd check it you'd see things
like provenpackager and some admin stuff which should indicate that
I'm a trusted and active member of the community. Even with that, I
wouldn't trust myself if I tried to speak from some position of
authority.

I'm pretty sure Intel stopped updating the firmware years ago. But,
yes, they do keep running so I can't really complain. It's just that
i810-level hardware (like the i845 graphics on these boards) is rather
poor and most development time these days is spent on much newer kit.
