In the case of GNOME, especially given recent flames between Torvalds and Gnome devs, this statement [apart from obviously also being inflammatory] is plainly wrong. There are a number of potential contributors who wish to help but are finding it hard to get past the [remaining] maintainers and are thus moving on to other projects. If you don't believe me, check the relevant posts/discussions and/or recent news... Ico
