what was the benefit of becoming a senior contributor?
Idealistic answer: The personal satisfaction of meaningful
contribution.
(There is a rumor that active IETF participants are highly motivated
by this
goal. So, the incentive is provide explicit satisfaction of it beyond
their
narrow areas of primary activity.)
Selfish: Public recognition. (Good for both one's ego and
potentially one's
employment status.)
ok, may make sense
how would this differ from the "technical advisor" title?

ps. The ideal and the selfish are complementary and not at all
negative, IMO.
But, then, I believe all idealism is driven by a form of
self-satisfaction...
