Andrew,

If you feel there's something glaringly wrong that should be improved,
patches are always greatly welcome.

For my money, the only thing that should hold up a release is a volunteer
saying they will fix something but won't have it ready until date X.  Beyond
that, changelogs go out with all the contributors and committers names on
them... believe me, they're not looking to put out a bad product and just
are trying to find a balance.
