hi, I don't see this distinction between "upstream" and "mantainer" so rigid, it would be rather a distinction between "people who know the code very well" and "people who know the code half well but try to contribute nonetheless". I for example fall in this second category regarding freevo, I have submitted many patches and snippets of code, most are now part of upstream.
