I haven't seen anybody in the group expect any one person to do everything for them. That kind of flies in the face of the whole concept of being an Apache project. I think that your point, while it has some validity, probably didn't need to be verbalized until there was a problem. Otherwise it comes across as an insinuation that the group at large is just a bunch of parasites looking to leach off your hard work. Kind of leaves a bad taste in one's mouth that might cause folks to dismiss your suggestion, whether it has technical merit or not ( and I believe it very well may ).
