As far as I know the kernel doesn't have a user interface in the sense the term is used for a graphical user application such as GIMP. It does provide a lot of interfaces to device drivers and to the higher levels of the operating system though. And these interfaces are changing quite frequently. Perhaps this was a misunderstanding. I don't really understand the purpose of the Linux kernel example. > Well, of course, everything could be better if more people would be > even allowed to work on gimp.

No idea what you are referring to here. Can you explain to me what you are talking about? Of course there is a patch review process. It would be insane not to have one. But we are trying hard to review patches very fast. Did you really have to wait an unreasonable time to have your patches reviewed?
