Maybe "wycats" is plural and he has a team of people implementing him, like Stephen King or TJ Holowaychuk.

Note that nobody reads every post in linux-kernel. In fact, nobody who expects to have time left over to actually do any real kernel work will read even half. Except Alan Cox, but he's actually not human, but about a thousand gnomes working in under-ground caves in Swansea. None of the individual gnomes read all the postings either, they just work together really well.

I have met him in person many times and so if that's it, they also have a single person handling interface. :)

Might be multiplets. Or maybe wycats is a clonal colony, like Pando.

What separates TJ from a lot of us is that he isnt afraid to actually go and read some source code,no matter what the language is. That's what separates the good devs from the average ones.How many of us actually read the source of libs or frameworks we use everyday? not that many. But he also have a thing for simplicity,and that is a matter of taste.
