You may put yourself in causative state and influence by talking. Or you may have conclusion, which is obviously and practically not true that you can't change something and then remain passive. I have filed bugs, and developers improved software. I have proposed features which have been implemented. The key to success in life is to communicate. Remaining silent will not bring any effect. Above I said "which is obviously and practically not true" -- because other people who communicate they contribute and shape the project. And when you need some private features, you can still ask developers to help and you can give some cash, when someone is too busy to put attention on your requests. Problem is also that many are not money motivated. Jean Louis --- via emacs-tangents mailing list (https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-tangents)
