Follow-up Comment #2:


I'm open to this idea of having a project for

anybody's patches; this isn't some ego trip of

mine to have my own.  What I want to avoid,

however, is either:



-- having to spend more time managing other

   people's contributions (including the web

   pages that describe them) than writing and

   contributing my own code;



-- ending up being managed by others and

   having to cut through a red tape of

   getting each contribution accepted, which

   would reintroduce the delay problem I'm

   trying to avoid in the first place.  (I

   make sure myself that the quality of

   whatever code I put up is high enough,

   if I want people to come back.)



It seems to me that it comes down to

minimizing the total amount of efforts by

everybody that's involved.  My assumption,

and I may have been wrong, is that it was

simplest for anybody who want to do this

(and there aren't necessarily tons) to

have his/her own very modest size project,

with no elitism connotation about it.

This way, nobody's stepping on anyone

else's toes.
