To be honest, I avoided this for a long time but David's own experiences
with advertising a little in the .signature would appear to have brought
him a lot of contacts that he wouldn't have gotten otherwise ("Hey!
You're the principle architect of FreeBSD? Great - I have some ideas
for you.."). I decided that though titles in signatures make me gag,
personally, I should probably make it more obvious. A lot of newcomers
to FreeBSD still don't know who does what, and it does help to know who
to talk to! :)
