Is there any volunteer organization that's any different? :-)
FreeBSD doesn't seem to suffer much from either issue. Then again, they also have something like 2000 committers, probably about 100 of which are very active.
FreeBSD suffers from *alot* of other things because of havin gtoo many committers :( As hard-core FreeBSD as I've been over the years, things haven't been the same since Jordan left ... to the point that I'm already planning on moving over to DragonFlyBSD (fork project of FreeBSD ... same base code as what we're currently using [ie. FreeBSD 4.x] but with *alot* of fixes for some pretty major problems that still exist in the current version of FreeBSD) over the next few months ... they've already re-written the VFS system, which we tax heavily, but haven't finished the rewrite of the unionfs code (which is how we tax VFS) which is in the works ...
Love the OS ... not so haappy with the direction its taken :(
