"You" guys put time in there, as with plack and memcache and
whatnot, but if you're on the outside, you have no way of getting a
head start beside reading some 1200 bugzilla comments in
chronological order to know what's the status, how to get it to work
on a git, etc... (my ref to plack is not accidental).<br>
<br>
You can put tens of hours alone on the next bug and then wonder why
nobody comes in when you call for testers, or invest a few hours on
documenting a quick way for dummasses like me to catch up.<br>

<b>Now</b>, everyone is constrained by time, and I apologize if the
comment above is frustrating to read. I don't want to be rude, and
I appreciate all the hours everyone put to improve the product while
I don't or can't. Please see that just as my opinion on why
different big devs don't get as many helpers as deserved.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think this is actually a very cogent observation, and deserves its own thread. I've definitely been in the situation where I've wanted a better view of large developments, but was overwhelmed by the comment threads in bugzilla. I've got some ideas, but I don't want to hijack the discussion of 16.05, zebra and jessie.</div></div></div></div>
