Of course you do; so does everybody except Linus (and probably there
are days when Linus does too).

But that's what your personal public arch archive is for, and that's
one reason why arch is so important vis-a-vis the server-based
systems.  "Access" to people becomes less important if your ideas are
good; all you need is access to a common carrier (and that's
protected by law by definition of "common carrier").
