I see one more trend nobody is really talking about.

Once there appears somebody brilliant in community, sooner or later Red
Hat hires him. Unfortunately, this rarely means that the person keeps
their independence. This also means that later we are missing the "pure"
community. May be Fedora should sponsor some volunteers to do some work,
without Red Hat hiring them.

Also, for project such as Pagure, I don't think we benefit enough from
programs such as GSoC. I'm not saying that we don't do this and of
course such participants needs mentors etc ...
