Yes, it happens. But I think Stucki will release a guide at some point 
that describes how to program and submit patches to core. Thuis guide is 
hanging around for some time...

Hm. And developers will have to take several copies of TCEmain or 
TCEforms and find differencies themselves. No, thanks! I do not want 
such job. :)

I doubt we can reject features and bug reports like this. Do not forget 
- core developers are not paid to work on core. We all have our projects 
and we do core coding in our free time.

Next, some core people have more responsibilities than you can see in 
core list. Some participate in 5.0, some do security, I work with 
translation server at the moment. I do not think we should remove anyone 
from core team unless no one can remember any activity from a person for 
at least a year. But new people are added from time to time to core team.
